Today we made a podcast with
Audacity. Audacity is a free open source software platform that allows you to record and edit sounds. The program is very straight forward to use but not as intuitive (at least for me) to use. I got the hang of it after a while of fumbling around with it. Part of the reason why I had trouble with the program is that I am a linear person. Audacity allows you to overlay sounds on top of one another. Listening to my podcast you will be able to tell I got better editing as the podcast went along. I also had trouble modulating the sound of my voice. There are plenty of
online tutorials that were very helpful. I recommend watching the tutorials BEFORE you start using the program. In my younger days, I fancied myself as a radio jock. This podcast is about the music I grew up with, what I thought about it, and how it shaped me as I grew. It was fun doing the project but I found I was wasting time listening to the songs instead of doing my work:)
