Audacity

Web 2.02: Audacity Workshop
Creating Podcasts

February, 14th 2008
Télécom ParisTech

Led by Laurence Whiteside

Audacity is a free sound editing program for Windows, Mac or Linux. In this workshop I will show you how you can use Audacity to:

  • record streaming media from the Internet,
  • take short extracts from long recordings (e.g. a short report from a 20 minute podcast),
  • make your own recordings, or even a class podcast,
  • digitize your tapes.

If you have a laptop, I'd be grateful if you could install Audacity on it beforehand and bring it along to the session. If you have a microphone or headset, bring that too. If you don't have your own equipment, no problem - come along anyway! You can download Audacity here: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download.

We'll be working with version 1.2.6
