Learn to record and edit audio using Audacity from scratch!
This is the long overdue update to my (admittedly low budget, but somehow still shockingly successful) video: 16 Tips in 9 Minutes - Audacity Editing 101 ( • Audacity Editing for B... ).
It should hopefully demystify some of the basic editing functions of Audacity. Please click the LIKE thing, and maybe even the SUBSCRIBE thing! Don't feel obliged to click the BELL thing; I don't see any need for the BELL thing. I think it was a bad idea at the get go.
Based on Audacity version 3.3.3
Argh - A new version of Audacity has JUST dropped; Watch for an update video featuring the revisions to this amazing free program!

It's been a minute since I've posted a tutorial here on the Cyberdog KZfaq channel, and I'm trying to improve the overall format. My delivery in this video could have used a LOT more rehearsal, but at this point, I opted for progress over perfection. I'm sorry for the jump cuts... and the plot holes... and the webcam... and so, so much more. Bear with me, and I hope this video does more good than harm.
