greeting period 6 radio students! (thurs Sept 11)

hey there, noisemakers and happy people! Today, I will spend some time at the beginning of the class demonstrating a few different techniques in the Adobe Audtion program. This was made possible by the fact that one of the techies came in and loaded Audition on my teacher workstation AND on several more of your computers. We can't have it on every machine -- we don't have enough licenses for that -- but there are at least 13 or 14 of your computers which do have it. So I'm expecting great things today.

But before you dive into that, I wish to demonstrate the following:

A) starting anew session

B) getting into "multitrack view"

C) importing sound clips

D) placing clips on various tracks

E) speeding up or slowing down the sound by using a "TIME STRECTH"

F) how to chop part of a clip, so it doesn't play

G) how to add new tracks from the INSERT --> Add Tracks menu

H) how to change a clip color, for ease of viewing

whew!

after that, you will be free to proceed with what you were doing yesterday. I am expecting that many more of you will be able to email me various sound clips/loops AND the website address where you got them, as the class progresses :-)

Cheers,
Mr. L
