In lieu of a traditional post this week, I decided to create an audio blog using Audacity and Soundcloud (which hosts uploaded audio publicly or privately). Click the widget below to have a listen!
I found Audacity to be surprisingly easy to use for such an intimidatingly complex platform. Editing and exporting the audio, in fact, took less than five minutes. By using normalization, silence truncation, and noise reduction tools that worked in one click I was able to create a surprisingly professional sounding product! Now that I'm familiar with the tools, I know it won't be difficult to create audio commentary to send to students.
This is fantastic! Your voice is so clear and you don't stumble. I wrote out a script for mine and still found myself stumbling over my words. You have a voice for the air! :)
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! You're a natural! I love all of these resources! I need to use some of this for my classroom next year.
ReplyDeleteThis was a great tool for your podcast, as the others said, your voice was very clear and the podcast sounded great. I attempted to use soundcloud but failed miserably haha, I couldn't figure out how to record myself.
