In this episode I want to talk about the importance of knowing Audacity fundamentals. Even though we now have the ability to use realtime non-destructive tools in Audacity, knowing the fundamentals and how to get around in Audacity, as well as knowing when and how to use some of the pre-packaged effects remains relevant. This is why I still teach the fundamentals in my online Audacity courses, in addition to the more recent, realtime capabilities. I'm a fan of both!

The New Limiter and Compressor in 3.6.0 and 3.6.1 Are Not Compatible With Macros Written For Earlier Versions 4:58

cách đây 37 weeks trước4:58

4:58

If you're running a macro that was built for earlier versions of Audacity prior to 3.6.0, and part of that macro includes the Limiter and/or Compressor, it's probably going to fail when invoked. The reason is that the new versions of these plugins have been rewritten for realtime use and the setting options have changed. In this episode I suggest 3 options as a workaround. Here's the link I mentioned to hotfix issues that were addressed in version 3.6.1. https://support.audacityteam.org/additional-resources/changelog/audacity-3.6.1 Other Places You'll Find Me: The Audacity Bootcamp online school for podcasters and ACX audiobook narrators.

Some of My Thoughts On Audacity Version 3.4.0 - And It Has a Bug! 9:10

cách đây 1 year trước9:10

9:10

Audacity version 3.4.0 is out but there's a bug you need to know about, along with a temporary fix if this bug is bugging you! I'm also a little disappointed with this update because even though it's a major update, there isn't any real change or improvements for us spoken word content creators. There are some updates and improvements for those in the music world but little if anything it seems, for those of us who don't do music creation.

Important Announcement 1:17

I've been presented with a couple of business opportunities that I'm going to take advantage of. That means that I'm going to have to channel my audio and video resources and skills elsewhere for a time. To clear off my plate a little, some things have to be rearranged. So I'm putting The Audacity Channel podcast on hiatus for the time being. It will still be here - I'm not taking it down - and I may drop a new episode from time-to-time. We'll see what the future holds. Thanks to everyone who follows this podcast. I appreciate you all.

How to Fix a Loud Noise Floor Using Audacity 9:29

Welcome to season 3 of the Audacity Channel podcast. I'm building the theme of season 3 around Audacity how-tos. In this first episode I take a look at how to fix a loud noise floor using the built-in effects in Audacity. I'm assuming a couple of things here, namely that the noise floor we're trying to fix doesn't have any weird artifacts in it like barking dogs or other background noises that don't belong. That's a problem for a different episode.

Setting the Correct LUFS Level For Your Podcast 10:32

cách đây 2 years trước10:32

10:32

Setting the correct loudness level (LUFS) for your podcast is an important step in post-production that shouldn't be overlooked. Leveling your audio helps ensure consistent loudness from beginning to end and gives the listener a better listening experience because they don't have to constantly adjust the volume of your podcast as it plays. Doing loudness leveling minimizes the loudness fluctuations that can otherwise occur, things like audio trailing off at the end of a sentence or loudness differences between multiple hosts or guests. The LUFS level for a stereo podcast is -16dB LUFS. For a mono podcast, it's -19dB LUFS. In this episode I suggest a few different tools that are available to help you hit your LUFS target level for the kind of podcast you're doing, either stereo or mono. Resources for LUFS leveling I mention in this podcast: In addition to Audacity's built-in loudness leveler, I talk about...

Adding Realtime Effects in Audacity 18:44

cách đây 2 years trước18:44

18:44

Let's take a few minutes to talk about using realtime effects in Audacity. The ability to add realtime, non-destructive effects takes Audacity to an entirely new level as a mainstream digital audio workstation. Plus, it's free! My purpose in this video isn't to recommend specific plugins (there are so many out there, making that a near impossible task). My purpose is to talk about how to add realtime effects and then describe my order of realtime effects when editing a podcast. I don't mention compression as one of my effects because I use a hardware compressor (my DBX 286S) so my audio is compressed before it ever gets recorded. Here's a look at where we've been and where we're going in this season of The Audacity Channel podcast: Episode 1: Recording Room Preparation Episode 2: Microphone Types Episode 3: Microphone Placement Episode 4: Microphone Technique Episode 5: My Recording Hardware Chain Episode 6: Audio Quality: Hitting the Mark with Sample Rate, Bit Depth, and Bit Rate Episode 7: Editing Multi-Track Projects in Audacity Episode 8: Adding Realtime Effects in Audacity (This Episode) Episode 9: How To Set The Correct LUFS Level Episode 10: Exporting Our Audacity Project as an MP3 Links I talk about in this episode: Audacity De-Clicker: https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/updated-de-clicker-and-new-de-esser-for-speech/34283 VIDEO: Audacity De-Clicker vs. The iZotope Mouth De-Clicker: https://youtu.be/EQHaWQRYViw Other Places You'll Find Me: The Audacity Bootcamp online school for podcasters and ACX audiobook narrators.

Editing Multi-Track Projects in Audacity 9:15

cách đây 2 years trước9:15

9:15

Let's talk about recording and editing in multi-track as opposed to single track where everyone in the show is recording on the same track and possibly even the intro and outro music. I've been doing multi-track recording and editing for years now. But when I began doing podcasts, I recorded everything onto one track. That's a challenge because if you have more than one person on your podcast, what works for EQ and other tonal adjustments for one of them, probably won't work as well for the other. In addition, if the person not speaking makes a sound while the other person's talking it's going to be hard, if not impossible to delete that piece of audio. Multi-track makes post-production so much easier. Here's a look at where we've been and where we're going in this season of The Audacity Channel podcast: Episode 1: Recording Room Preparation Episode 2: Microphone Types Episode 3: Microphone Placement Episode 4: Microphone Technique Episode 5: My Recording Hardware Chain Episode 6: Audio Quality: Hitting the Mark with Sample Rate, Bit Depth, and Bit Rate (This Episode) Episode 7: Editing Multi-Track Projects in Audacity (This Episode) Episode 8: Adding Realtime Effects in Audacity Episode 9: How To Set The Correct LUFS Level Episode 10: Exporting Our Audacity Project as an MP3 Links I talk about in this episode (these are affiliate links so I get a couple of dollars if you purchase using these links).
