Playing duets with yourself

I recently discovered that you can play duets with yourself using the program audacity. After playing around with it, this is what I discovered. I will list my method.
  1. Open audacity and click Generate, Click-Track.
  2. Set the number of measures and the tempo that you want. Remember to put in about two extra measure so that you can get ready to play.
  3. Plug in headphones to your computer. This will allow you to hear the click-click track. It will also keep the microphone from recording the click track.
  4. record the first part
  5. hit the record button again and record the second part. You will be able to hear yourself playing the first part. You can use this to play in tune.
  6. adjust the volume and balance
I would like to be able to post a recording of myself, but I can't figure out how. Maybe in the future I will.
