This is heads and tails above all the other Audacity tutorials I have been watching. As a fairly new voice over artist having to work from home and needing to have a firm grasp and knowledge of the sound engineering, recording, and editing aspect of the business, I have finally found what I was looking for! While there are some decent tutorials on RUclips, most rely on distracting background music and talk at breakneck speed or are hard to understand. You sir, not only have a thorough knowledge of the subject but a calm demeanor and excellent speaking voice that is not rushed. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. It is most appreciated!
I followed your guidance today, and hit the record button! Oh my God! It worked, I'm over the moon! No headaches with setting up, Audacity automatically selected my USB Audio Interface. This is great, I'm going to have some fun with it tomorrow! Thank you so much!

Hi, Luis--thanks for your question. It's a good one. The video you watached was made for students using their home computers to record their voice narration. I should have that clearer. So 16-bit was all the depth they needed along with the 44.1 sample rate. Given their goal of a web-based voice recording on a home computer, I was trying to keep them within manageable limits for their equipment.
David Taylor Oh ok I see. So what about if you wanted to word like a voice over for music. Would 16 bit also be acceptable? Thank you for respond by the way
If you're going to broadcast it on the web, I would think 16-bit is sufficient. But, hey, try a sample of 24 bit and maybe you can hear a difference. So much depends on the equipment you're using,too.
THIS WAS AN INFORMATIVE, EASY TO UNDERSTAND, SOFTLY AND WELL-SPOKEN TUTORIAL. I SENSED A PATIENCE IN THE VOICE THAT MADE IT EASY TO LISTEN TO. SCHOLARLY WITHOUT BEING PRETENTIOUS OR CONDESCENDING. EXCELLENT HELP.

As someone who gets overwhelmed by editing, I found your thorough explanations and pace (others are far too fast for me) allowed me to feel that I had made a real breakthrough in understanding; there were just a couple of points towards the end where I got slightly lost.

This presenter clearly knows how to pace and illustrate his 'lecture' effectively - which contrasts so obviously with other pseudo-teachers on RUclips. They gabble, use strange American colloquialisms (which do not survive across cultural boundaries), make unsubstantiated and childish claims, have no understanding of how to modulate their voice or provide changes of emphasis and, most importantly, fail to allow time for the 'student' to absorb the data (masquerading as information) they present. This video is a joy to listen to, easy to follow, addresses key topics of the process of audio-recording and is generally an effective education tool. I personally will look for more material by this presenter, whom I recommend..
This is the best instructional video on how to use Audacity: Clear voice, no screaming, and no irritating background music. I felt as if I am back in college listening to one of my most favorite instructors. I wish other tutorial videos watch this footage and learn from it, not only how to use Audacity, but also how to imitate the presenter. Thanks a million, David.
Selecting the input mode he says "you want stereo ofcourse". Actually most likely you're going to want your record track set to mono if you're just using one mic. Stereo is for when you're recording with two mics simultaneously.
This so called tutorial lacks a lot of depth and details about how to transfer from tapes to audio CD even those that are reel to reel and then comes setting it up and making it ready to go.
This is really straightforward and informative. Very helpful for those of us in voice over who don't have access to dedicated engineers and expensive studios

I learned more in this 16 minutes than I did in an entire week with my purchased software. My first crack at recording so I really needed to start at the beginning. Thanks
Thanks for the great comment, Pete! Quality of your mic is everything. Try to be in a quiet place with lots of pillows, carpeting, and other sound-absorbing things. Use towels to cover surfaces if you have to. Good luck!
Hi David, thank you so very much for this great tutorial, I've learned a lot with it and it help me fix a few problems I had with my recordings. Thank you for your help.
David Taylor juat for curiousty i speak normally without the mike but then when i speak into the mike in video or recording i havent used this yet but i wan this question out if the way, how can make my voice in the mic the same as i talk in irl
Thank you for this video. I am brand new to audio editing, so I will have to work my way up to some of those finer points that you got into, but I will definitely be using those basic editing concepts for my podcast.
+David Taylor (Peakdavid) nIce video.I just have a doubt How to keep microphone level at 12 DB or higher than 0 DB as observed and mentioned by you in video
0.0dB is the highest level for digital audio. To go louder, the next level would be less loud at 1.0db. Then at -2.0db the sound is the next level softer. And so on.

Thank you so much for doing this wonderfully informative video. I'm an ageing rocker who has just picked up the bass and guitar again after many years off and the last time I recorded anything the whole band chipped in for an 8 track Portastudio.

Blue Snowball is probably your cheapest USB desktop. But a good USB headset might also do the trick. Internal mics usually pick up electrical activity of your machine.

I have been watching a few audacity tutorials specifically I want start a radio show Not with backround music but strickly alternating an oldie mp3 with my commentary and then back to another oldie mp3 file
Interesting "Complete Tutorial ... for Beginners" as you show how to do what YOU do and not what IT does or can do or what option is for what... I mean some one who has never used it before may have learned something, I still did, even though I figured out everything else you showed by playing with it. I came to learn what I missed and what all does this thing do. How can I do what I need to do easily with, what are my options, and tools available. What was not addressed for "Complete Tutorial"... Not all sounds are done in stereo (why/why not). Different effects/filters (what, what for, and why). Not wave, never wave...what are the different file types and what's good with/for what (factual, not opinionated.. or both even). I am using X_name-your-gadget_X as an input (how to get connected and where to make adjustments) or these files/recordings/sounds (importing files). How to mix/cut/join different bits/pieces/whole/numerous sound files (just the basics of file editing, as is what Audacity is for or can do. I know I missed a lot, but.. It's a very versatile tool. Show it off. No offence, just saying/critique.
i knew nothing about audacity before i saw this tutorials. that helped enough to clear up my tutorial audio. one problem is that audacity accept only limited amout of audio formats it does not accept m4a files. so i have to use audio converter. thanks again

Only just now seeing this in 2020. Best visual tutorial I have ever seen on ANYTHING, lately. Like the ECU (Extreme Close Ups) on the visuals demonstrations. Great job. Thanks for sharing.
It's a good question and I have answered it but who could possibly find it? I made the video for a class who was learning to use Camtasia. So the audio file needed to be uncompressed for best use in the video editor since it would be compressed when the video was rendered. Otherwise, the highly compressed .mp3 would be the way to go. I should add an annotation about this.
I bet you are suggesting I use the .mp3 file extention since I am trying to learn how to fix the audio on some videos I made using movavi and output them as .mp3 and later converted them to .mp2 for RUclips. For some reason RUclips wants videos in .mp2.

This is great - thank you! I’m a complete novice in the realm of audio editing. Audacity is the first and only editor I’ve tried, based on this one tutorial alone. I’m a volunteer making field recordings of people speaking in environments with lots of ambient and sometimes other background noises anywhere from door closures, to soft conversations, up to PA announcements. I’ve learned enough from this one tutorial, applying it with a little trial and error, to end up with tremendously improved final products. I love how Audacity makes it easy to really zoom in on problem areas to improve or eliminate. For my purposes, the combination of Audacity and this tutorial is all I really needed. Your teaching style, and step by step, one feature at a time, straight forward approach made learning what I needed to know almost effortless. RUclips, when used for responsible teaching, available to all anytime anywhere is a triumphant modern miracle. It looks like you made this video tutorial about 3years ago and it is still valid, still helping people learn. I noticed a few nomenclature changes on some of the menus in the version of Audacity I downloaded, but they are close enough that I never got lost. So kudos too to the developers for making updates in such ways that do not render great tutorials like this one obsolete.

Many thanks David! I was a complete beginner before your tutorial. I used your tips to improve the quality of a track I'm going to publish -- a short listening test for English learners, so it needs to be as loud and clear as possible. For anyone who uses Davinci Resolve (free professional video editing software), be sure to export the audio from Audacity in WAV format before importing it into Davinci because Davinci Resolve (at least version 14, that is), doesn't allow you to import audio in mp3 format.

David - I had to pause at the 4 minute mark to let you know that your teaching style is FREAKING EXCELLENT. This is exactly what I've been looking for, and I can't wait to start mixing my own station IDs and stuff. Thank you!

Why should I have it at 16-bit? What's wrong with have it at 24 or 32 or something?
Hi, Luis--thanks for your question. It's a good one. The video you watached was made for students using their home computers to record their voice narration. I should have that clearer. So 16-bit was all the depth they needed along with the 44.1 sample rate. Given their goal of a web-based voice recording on a home computer, I was trying to keep them within manageable limits for their equipment.
David Taylor
Oh ok I see. So what about if you wanted to word like a voice over for music. Would 16 bit also be acceptable? Thank you for respond by the way
If you're going to broadcast it on the web, I would think 16-bit is sufficient. But, hey, try a sample of 24 bit and maybe you can hear a difference. So much depends on the equipment you're using,too.
David Taylor
Ah alright thank you!
THIS WAS AN INFORMATIVE, EASY TO UNDERSTAND, SOFTLY AND WELL-SPOKEN TUTORIAL. I SENSED A PATIENCE IN THE VOICE THAT MADE IT EASY TO LISTEN TO. SCHOLARLY WITHOUT BEING PRETENTIOUS OR CONDESCENDING. EXCELLENT HELP.

As someone who gets overwhelmed by editing, I found your thorough explanations and pace (others are far too fast for me) allowed me to feel that I had made a real breakthrough in understanding; there were just a couple of points towards the end where I got slightly lost.
The labelling with arrow of each section was also helpful.

This presenter clearly knows how to pace and illustrate his 'lecture' effectively - which contrasts so obviously with other pseudo-teachers on RUclips. They gabble, use strange American colloquialisms (which do not survive across cultural boundaries), make unsubstantiated and childish claims, have no understanding of how to modulate their voice or provide changes of emphasis and, most importantly, fail to allow time for the 'student' to absorb the data (masquerading as information) they present. This video is a joy to listen to, easy to follow, addresses key topics of the process of audio-recording and is generally an effective education tool. I personally will look for more material by this presenter, whom I recommend..
Wow! Thank you, a squared. I really appreciate your gracious words. Let me know anything else you'd like to see!
This is the best instructional video on how to use Audacity: Clear voice, no screaming, and no irritating background music. I felt as if I am back in college listening to one of my most favorite instructors. I wish other tutorial videos watch this footage and learn from it, not only how to use Audacity, but also how to imitate the presenter. Thanks a million, David.
You are welcome! And thank you for the generous comments. Let me know anything else you need.
Selecting the input mode he says "you want stereo ofcourse". Actually most likely you're going to want your record track set to mono if you're just using one mic. Stereo is for when you're recording with two mics simultaneously.
It won't let me record on mono with 1 mic but it does record on Stereo.. What should I do?
@@ItsSoldierBoii Convert the voice to mono.
Thanks for letting me know
@@ItsSoldierBoii change it from MME to wasapi.
This so called tutorial lacks a lot of depth and details about how to transfer from tapes to audio CD even those that are reel to reel and then comes setting it up and making it ready to go.
This is really straightforward and informative. Very helpful for those of us in voice over who don't have access to dedicated engineers and expensive studios

I learned more in this 16 minutes than I did in an entire week with my purchased software. My first crack at recording so I really needed to start at the beginning. Thanks
Thanks for the great comment, Pete! Quality of your mic is everything. Try to be in a quiet place with lots of pillows, carpeting, and other sound-absorbing things. Use towels to cover surfaces if you have to. Good luck!
Hi David, thank you so very much for this great tutorial, I've learned a lot with it and it help me fix a few problems I had with my recordings. Thank you for your help.
+Miga Drica My pleasure, Miga! Best wishes for success!
David Taylor juat for curiousty i speak normally without the mike but then when i speak into the mike in video or recording i havent used this yet but i wan this question out if the way, how can make my voice in the mic the same as i talk in irl
Thank you for this video. I am brand new to audio editing, so I will have to work my way up to some of those finer points that you got into, but I will definitely be using those basic editing concepts for my podcast.
+Matt Cox (Pop Culture Primer) Best wishes for success!
+David Taylor (Peakdavid) nIce video.I just have a doubt How to keep microphone level at 12 DB or higher than 0 DB as observed and mentioned by you in video
0.0dB is the highest level for digital audio. To go louder, the next level would be less loud at 1.0db. Then at -2.0db the sound is the next level softer. And so on.

Hi Dave I just subscribed I've been using audacity for several years now and just came into a little problem.
I'm using Windows 10 I have been from several years now.
The problem is when I go to export audio the window does not pop up it doesn't tell me anything where it's going WAV file MP3 I hit export and basically nothing happens.
This just started occurring out of the blue any clue what it might be.
Lame is there this is a real Puzzler any clue may help me.

@@peakdavid how can i add virtualization to my audio file?
I have heared it on other apps but neither of them were audio editors

Good question. Virtualization (surround sound) is enabled through the operating system (OS) or sound card firmware/driver.
Glad it worked for you. Continued success!

if i wanna record something there is a loud buzz in the background. how i remove it. i even have it when i dont say anything. plz help
+BradboxTV The sound is the electrical current in your computer, most likely. Your best bet is to buy a new USB headset or desktop microphone.
so its the microfone. ok thx for helping. then i have to buy an blue snowball
Blue Snowball is probably your cheapest USB desktop. But a good USB headset might also do the trick. Internal mics usually pick up electrical activity of your machine.
cause i have a mic from logitech. its a headset. but i was already planning to get a bleu snowball for my channel
Maybe your headset has gone bad.
Tip: you can make the video twice the speed if you don't want to watch for 16 minutes

I have been watching a few audacity tutorials specifically I want start a radio show Not with backround music but strickly alternating an oldie mp3 with my commentary and then back to another oldie mp3 file
I wish you the best with it. Get a good USB mic and put it on a boom stand.
Interesting "Complete Tutorial ... for Beginners" as you show how to do what YOU do and not what IT does or can do or what option is for what... I mean some one who has never used it before may have learned something, I still did, even though I figured out everything else you showed by playing with it. I came to learn what I missed and what all does this thing do. How can I do what I need to do easily with, what are my options, and tools available.
What was not addressed for "Complete Tutorial"... Not all sounds are done in stereo (why/why not). Different effects/filters (what, what for, and why). Not wave, never wave...what are the different file types and what's good with/for what (factual, not opinionated.. or both even). I am using X_name-your-gadget_X as an input (how to get connected and where to make adjustments) or these files/recordings/sounds (importing files). How to mix/cut/join different bits/pieces/whole/numerous sound files (just the basics of file editing, as is what Audacity is for or can do. I know I missed a lot, but.. It's a very versatile tool. Show it off. No offence, just saying/critique.
Thanks for your excellent feedback.
Very well done and informative, so thank you so much for the help :D.
i knew nothing about audacity before i saw this tutorials. that helped enough to clear up my tutorial audio.
one problem is that audacity accept only limited amout of audio formats it does not accept m4a files. so i have to use audio converter.

Only just now seeing this in 2020. Best visual tutorial I have ever seen on ANYTHING, lately. Like the ECU (Extreme Close Ups) on the visuals demonstrations. Great job. Thanks for sharing.
I don’t know why but your voice gets me in the mood to learn. Thank you for this video.
Great to hear! Most people say I put them to sleep.
i don't know if anybody else already asked. but "why did u save it as a wav?" is there a specific reason other then it being a voice clip?
It's a good question and I have answered it but who could possibly find it? I made the video for a class who was learning to use Camtasia. So the audio file needed to be uncompressed for best use in the video editor since it would be compressed when the video was rendered. Otherwise, the highly compressed .mp3 would be the way to go. I should add an annotation about this.
I bet you are suggesting I use the .mp3 file extention since I am trying to learn how to fix the audio on some videos I made using movavi and output them as .mp3 and later converted them to .mp2 for RUclips. For some reason RUclips wants videos in .mp2.

This is great - thank you! I’m a complete novice in the realm of audio editing. Audacity is the first and only editor I’ve tried, based on this one tutorial alone. I’m a volunteer making field recordings of people speaking in environments with lots of ambient and sometimes other background noises anywhere from door closures, to soft conversations, up to PA announcements. I’ve learned enough from this one tutorial, applying it with a little trial and error, to end up with tremendously improved final products. I love how Audacity makes it easy to really zoom in on problem areas to improve or eliminate. For my purposes, the combination of Audacity and this tutorial is all I really needed. Your teaching style, and step by step, one feature at a time, straight forward approach made learning what I needed to know almost effortless. RUclips, when used for responsible teaching, available to all anytime anywhere is a triumphant modern miracle. It looks like you made this video tutorial about 3years ago and it is still valid, still helping people learn. I noticed a few nomenclature changes on some of the menus in the version of Audacity I downloaded, but they are close enough that I never got lost. So kudos too to the developers for making updates in such ways that do not render great tutorials like this one obsolete.

For anyone who uses Davinci Resolve (free professional video editing software), be sure to export the audio from Audacity in WAV format before importing it into Davinci because Davinci Resolve (at least version 14, that is), doesn't allow you to import audio in mp3 format.
