The base question is perhaps a little ill formed so one can only guess at desire. You can't make an audio track longer per say. One can change the speed of the audio clip to make it longer, Tools > Power Tools > Audio Speed or Ctrl + Click end and drag. Both options do the same thing. However, this will slow down the audio if that’s what was desired to stretch the audio stream so it has a longer duration.

If the audio in the track had been trimmed, one can expose the trimmed audio by Click end and drag. If the entire audio for that clip is already displayed, Click and drag can do nothing.

Thanks. That worked. It does slow down the speed but since the audio is a clock ticking it didn't matter. Cheers, JL The Village Clockmaker

If it is Smart Sound you can change the length of the music at will, just click and drag the end.

Any other audio, only with audio speed. Carl312: Windows 10 64-bit 8 GB RAM,AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz,ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB,240GB SSD,two 1TB HDs.
