Upstate Technology Conference – Audacity Session

June 24, 2008 · 2 Comments

Today is the first day of the Upstate Technology Conference with pre-conference sessions starting.  My first session is a hands-on session using Audacity.  Audacity is a great FREE program that one can download to record and edit audio.  This program is easy to use and the site has quite a bit of information.  If this isn’t enough information to get you started then check out their wiki or forum!    At the wiki, there are great tutorials and tips.  If you are one of those (like me!) that need a manual, check out these two…   the reference guide and the user’s manual.

In my session, I also mentioned the Christmas present I had given my husband.  (For those of you who were not in my session…my husband has over 500 record albums which are gathering dust!  I bought him a device that will let him connect his turntable to his iPod or flash drive and record his albums.)  The name of the device is iRecord.  You can find more information about this device by clicking here.  We bought the cheaper one of the two…and it works great!

Oh yeah…one more thing…click here to download my PowerPoint for the audacity session.  Feel free to use it, add to it, or whatever!

    Had my doubts and not too excited about losing even one day of summer vacation. Your conference was “the bomb.” Have already registered with JOTT and sent my first two text messages ever. Thanks

    Cathy,
    Thanks for all you did for the UTC. Wish sessions were a bit longer! I can see this growing to be one of the largest tech conferneces in the southeast! Kudos to all the folks on your team.
