About me & my channel:
Hey! My name is Jason R., and I started this RUclips channel in 2016, with the goal in mind to create high-quality, unique tech videos for RUclips. The response and growth I saw over the first several years of uploading videos absolutely stunned me, and making videos that genuinely helped people made me incredibly happy. Where I am today, I've gathered an incredible, supportive audience that I create regular technology and lifestyle videos for. But one thing I always want to emphasize on my channel is growth: meaning I want to create better, more useful, and more unique videos, grow my audience, and eventually make a career out of this hobby. If you support me and this vision, then please subscribe and we can make this happen!

🚨👋🏼 PSA: I stopped making Audacity videos as I've switched to Cakewalk (also free) because I needed more features. If you feel the need to upgrade too, here's some of my Cakewalk videos to get you started:

A few of y'all commented saying I either talked too much or didn't cover enough about the technical parts of making a song. Some even called the title misleading lol. But do understand I take everything into consideration as I improve my videos. Here's some stuff to help you out:

@Jason R. AeriumTV great and helpful video! I would like to ask you where and hod did you get Auto Tune in Audacity?
I really fw this guy he’s really chill and is really good at explaining thing I feel like me and this dude could really get along🤝
Your old vid on Audacity brought me here😄 Thanks for sharing this cuz most vids on RUclips mentioned other softwares (which seemed complicated for me to use) and after installing Audacity, I could record and edit but didn't sounded much appealing to me. So, this, and your old video are a big help✨
No problem, glad I could help 👍🏼
Bro thank you I’ve been waiting on a video like this for a while
No problem 🤞🏼
Your videos always have something useful for anyone to use to do for their creative output. I love your channel!
Glad to hear that, thanks!
thank you for keeping it simple and not to complicated, we need more people like you
Bro I usually hate all that gibberish and excessive talking but you did a great job explaining and I appreciate that bro💯 I’m new to this and want to use audacity because my friend uses it. Much love bro
Course man, I'm glad it helped you out 👊🏼
I appreciate you captain, I just took a lot of helpful notes.
Hella lit bro keep up that fire and keep making ur own songs FW it heavy

☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼 Right here people, if ya wanna skip the beginning.
@@spokenrain With all due respect, that has no basis in reality.
Thank you, your videos are very helpful : ) . Love from India
No problem man, glad you're here :)
Good video man. Watched a few of your videos to get a grasp on auto tune on audacity for some melodies that have been holding me back from making music for a while! Subbed
Thanks & good luck man :)
Let’s talk on Instagram: sidney.gilliamjr I’ll mix your vocals for the low
Yo man, I just released my first song recently and saw this video a while back which helped me out with all the mixing on it, even with a bad mic... Even the second tutorial on mixing in Audacity helped out a bunch. I'd appreciate any feedback bro, thanks!
Ur talent is next level! keep it up :D
Nice vid really improving since last one
Dope, happy to hear that :)
Song went hard
Thank you for all your recomendations, saw that you have talent to inspire others 🙌
Stay organic 👍
Saludos desde México 🌮😁
Thank you thank you!
Bro you are actually really smart and talented keep it up
This video was helpful. Ngl I was kinda confused on how this app worked. Thank you
No problem man, glad it helped!
bro, you will be famous... your song is fiiiireeee
Omgg your voice is fireeee✨🔥🔥
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
i use fl studio to produce my songs but your tips still being usefull, thanks!!
No problem, glad you enjoyed!
What website did you say about downloading the instrumental off of then freestyle off of it to see if you culd make a song out of it
thanks so much man
I think your video is great. It helped me a lot to understand a bit about the music creation process to be able to buy a gift for my song. I think I will begin with a microphone and letting him know about Audacity if he doesn't already know. Thank you so much for sharing. I will be telling him to check your youtube channel out also. Thanks again.
Bro this guy has made such an underrated vid, you deserve so much more attention g
Thanks brother 🙏🏼
Your videos are so high quality!
Thank you :)
Yo appreciated dawg
amen bro, thanks
thanku !
Hey, I really liked this video, are the setting in the description?
My bad man, I always seem to forget something lol. I've put most of them in the description and I'll add a few tomorrow once I export my presets :)
It is helpful to watch your video. Thank you for sharing~
You're welcome :)
thank you so much
Sweet! Thanks Jason
Yeah man!
Incredible, Sir. 🙌🔥👌
Appreciate that!
this video it's not about how to make a song but it's just giving step's to make a song that everyone already knows
Lol how far into it did you watch?
@@jasonrtech all of it dude
@@mouradsibari1252 Well considering I covered how I write lyrics, develop melodies, record takes, refine recorded audio, apply EQ edits, de-ess, use pitch correction, add reverb, and mix ad-libs, you should have everything you need for your own song. Not sure what else there is to add.
thank you
this mic is immaculate...
The goat of audicity
Preciate it bro 💯 🙌🏾
THANK U
Which RUclipsr do you get your instrumentals from if you don’t mind . This would help me tons
Thanks Jack!!!!
Lmao that's the one comparison I don't get.
damn, that song at the beginning was honestly fire
Appreciate it 🙏🏼
I just got my first Mic in and downloaded audacity and really needed help! You are a lifesaver and have gotten a new subscriber. Also, your hair looks cute!
Thanks & glad to have ya here!
cringe
?
2:45 i totally agree on that... I can write more easily if i have a music track in my mind 💕 great work man ✌🏻
i downloaded You wa shock and Tdr nova, and they dont open up in audacity, i ran them both multiple times and yet to no avail. Am i doing something wrong?
tysm this was so helpful : DD !!!!
Glad you liked :)
Tutorial starts at 7:27, you’re welcome
Everytime I record it records at the end of the beat? Can you help?
His hair looks like tangela.
😂😂😂
AWESOMEEEEE
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nice tut. but i did have one question. Why do you select to record on a mono track instead of a stereo track? Mono compresses both left and right parts of the audio into a single track. Why do you think this is better?
This is better than the top vids that pop
Appreciate that!
Aye this was worth my time
Noice 👌🏼
Everytime I try to record something it just starts recording at the end the instrumental no matter how many other tracks I had
Audacity is like a word processor: you have to put the cursor where you want it to record 👍🏼
or the keybinds changed randomly which it does in audacity sometimes. fairly sure its shift R
How do you add the music and music video together and make sure it’s correct
I don't know why.. Whenver i want to see how to edit video.. I automatically click on your video.. ❤🌸
Also i love your voice so much.. Im trying to sing.. Its just my starting.. I hope your video will help me🌸❤
Great song bro
You’re smart it’s hottttt
Nice video brother! 🤙
Hey, great tutorial but how do you import the Rain Snow Chorus into the TDR plugin?
Did u get an answer?
Thanks! You use the effect menu to do that (the three horizontal lines at the bottom left of the plugins). Scroll down a bit on this page for full instructions: manual.audacityteam.org/man/effect_menu_vst.html 👍🏼
THANKS FOR THE TUTORIAL
No problem!
He is cleary professional. Blue yeti USB mic, some creative speakrs (not even studio monitors) .
How you gonna snub somebody working in Audacity? If the expectation is top-of-the-line professionality, don't know why you're on an Audacity tutorial. The focus here is making the most out of what you got 👍🏼
Imagine if Markiplier and Jack Harlow had a son
I don't see it but it's definitely not the first time I've heard that 😂
@@jasonrtech lmao
Hey Jason! I'm looking at the plug-ins you mentioned but it seems a lot of them are not being updated anymore. For example spitfish only runs on 32 bit and it looks like you wa shock is only good for win 98/xp/vista? Do you have windows 10? 64 bit? let me know :)
Audacity only supports 32-bit plugins, so that's no problem. And I use You Wa Shock on Windows 10 without any problems 👍🏼
while singing high notes the voice in audacity gets a lil distorted or breaks.. how to fix that ?
What microphone did you use to make this song? Good quality
Thanks & it's the Blue Yeti 👍🏼
i have all my equipment set up & plugged in, but when i play back my test recording, i can’t hear anything unless i unplug my microphone. is this because my laptop thinks that the 2.5 or whatever it is mm cable is a speaker rather than a mic? idk, i’m very confused & need help lmao
Cool!
Thanks!
I have a question: how can you sing without the instrumental in the background? is it possible to record your own voice while listening to the instrumental part?
What volume do you recommend the mic be on?
awesome
im using earphones and no sounds or words want to get recorded. can i get help??
sick vid brother
Appreciate it!
nice vid bro
I started making the music of my song in garageband on my phone as a joke but i really like it! I downloaded it on my laptop but when i want to import it to audacity it gives me an error, what should i do?
File type probably ?
You look like Bobby from team edge just with different hair and glasses.
When I’m recording why does it not create a waveform as I’m speaking???
Great vid bro
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Can someone help me out with an issue I got? Apparently, when I try to record a verse, the recording starts after the ending of the instrumental. What do I do?
Thanks jason
No problem :)
Hi Jason
I want to know how to use bandlab and what is the best type of microphone for singing at a good price ..Thanks
how do u see & edit the effects that u just put on ur vocal track??
Great video!
Thanks! :)
you wanna put a link for the auto tune plug in too since audacity doesnt come with one?
I am using a blue ice microphone. I notice the volume is always quiet when speaking directly into the microphone and have to amplify +18db to get a half decent sound. Even then when I upload my videos they are a lot quieter than other similar ones. As mentioned I use a blue ice mic so I assume all the volume goes through there when I talk but does any audio go through the Mac? My macs left speaker does not work so sound only comes out of the right side so is this the issue or is there something I am not doing right? Thanks
Trato de instalar los plugin de wave en audacity y me sale un mensaje que no abre la caroeta o la biblioteca. Que hago?.
Hey when you mention "autotune" are you using a built-in plugin from audacity or from one of the 3 plugins mentioned? Thank you
Yeah, Auto-Tune actually isn’t built-in or one of the free plugins I mentioned. It’s a paid plugin made by Antares 👍🏼
@@jasonrtech Hey what are the settings for your reverb?
@@jasonrtech how do you hear yourself while recording music on the blue yetti by it being a usb mic help anyone
@@Chessplayer_zo speaker or headphones
@@thatkidhillz7711 i got it i just cant fix the delay on the mic
Hey jason..jason here... thanks much for this..helped me alot... hope to meet you one day.😀
My recording keeps starting from the end of the beat help!!!!!!
