I’m a terrible student so I’m a skimmer. But I love your tutorials, just the quick skipping around I’ve done has improved my sound recording 10000%. The world is crazy nowadays, but excited to sit down and really absorb everything. You’ve got a fan here!!! Stay well ❤️

[yashkulkarni]

Thank you so much for making this available for free, I am an absolute beginner at audio recording, this was ALL I needed to get started.

[johnpayne-tn]

I am a retired teacher of English, etc. You are good at teaching in manner easy to follow!!

[Detached_AZ]

@VoiceOverMaster This was exactly what I needed. I had no idea how easy could be. ONE SUGGESTION THOUGH JOSH!!! Please HIGHLIGHT your mouse or make it bigger. Because it's the same color as the APP, many times I couldn't see where you were pointing to. I had to re watch 3-4 times to follow your cursor. Most people use a "highlighter" around their cursor. You and many others will thank me.

[rsinghi]

Hi there, thanks for this tutorial. It took me a few days to complete the tutorial but it was worth it. I learned a lot through this tutorial.

[lesblackwell]

Thank you very much! This is great. I have to say that you lost me right after the Filter Curve EQ. The jumping around from 50:30 - 54:00 just made my head spin...

[_MR.PILL_]

Excellent tutorial! I used to work with Sound Forge years ago doing radio news and this is similar. I was kind of lost on Audacity before I watched. It's going to be cool to get into voiceover again. Thanks!

[fabiolaberta]

The best tutorial !!! 😅 see you very soon

[jessicawhite]

I'm so happy I came across your video! I was about to give up on self-narrating my book. But now every file is passing no problem. Thank you for doing these videos.

[burtclemons]

You explain things so precisely. I have been looking at many videos on how to use DAWs, I’m using Reaper, but I haven’t really mastered it. You make me wanna switch to Audacity. I really love the video you did, Ultimate Guide for Narrators and Podcasters. I’m hooked your program. Thanks for sharing.

[jasonjhumphreys]

This has been some of the most comprehensive and practical info I've received on Audacity. Thanks very much, Josh! Cheers, dude.👍

[gaelicpros]

Life Saver! You're one very FEW who've offered this comprehensive info. Peace Out - Josh :))

[aravindsanjeev]

The notepad gives a 2011 YouTube tutorials vibe. Again a nice tutorial ;)

[ThinkstMedia]

what a Tutorial. Ive been using Audacity just to edit my voice and then import the WAV File back into my Video editor. Trying to guess a lot of the effects. These Tutorial connected a lot of dots. And for FREE!!! You've got to be kidding me!

I didnt know there was a difference between a Balanced XLR Cable vs a non balanced 1. So much gold in this Tutorial. And agIn for FREE!!! WOW!

Iam now a subscriber.

THANK YOU

[suedeutscher]

Very helpful and thank you for not speed talking.

[melsiearts]

First off THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!! I have only been in the voice over business since May 2021. I watched this, and several other videos of yours and now have a new sound. I have a little bit of a deeper tone and found that your female EQ2 worked great. I also added the info about noise gate and the order to adjust my files... This I HOPE will be a game changer for me... THANKS

[sudheergupta]

One of the best tutorial I found on audacity.. It's mean alot to me sir. Love from India

[GiseleCaver]

My condolences extended on the transition of your Grand Father. I add a Bless to his eternal journal. Thank you for this tutorial. I learned so much. Much Respect - In The Key of Gee!

[braxtonthomas]

Thank you so much, been at this for a whole 2 months and after watching this I feel a lot more confident with audacity!! You sir are the man!!
