Deep Dive into Audacity (Episode 11)

  • Summary

  • Step-by-Step Guide for Authors to record their book using Audacity

    "I'm intimidated by the software" - said almost every author I've ever worked with. If the software was easier to use, I know more authors would be willing to record their own audiobooks.

    I want to break down barriers to audiobooks for authors, and it seems like many, many authors hit this particular technological barrier. One of the simplest, easiest-to-use recording programs, that has punch & roll capability, is Audacity, available at https://www.audacityteam.org

    So, let's break down, step-by-step and click-by-click, how to record your audiobook, using the popular (and free!) audiobook recording software program Audacity. It's easier than you think!

    In this episode you'll learn how to, using Audacity:

    • Download the software
    • Test your recording levels
    • Push the right buttons to record, stop, and punch & roll
    • Save your audio files so they don't get out of order
    • Connect better with your listeners, by pacing your reading
