This is great. Been thinking about trying Descript for awhile as I spend too much time editing audio podcasts in Audacity. One non-Descript question: what video recording and editing software did you use to make this vid? Really liked how you had your talking head in the lower right while demoing the screen. What program enabkes you to integrate your live inset with the computer demo screen?

Thanks for this! Thinking about switching over to Descript.

[jodybagno-dill]

This is a very well done tutorial! Thank you so much!

[fionaeastmond]

update - I am now using it and it is MAGICAL

[maricelp]

The audio you are using is clean already. I want to know if Descript has the function to edit audio as if you are editing using audacity or Adobe Audition.

Great intro to Descript. I was looking for a way to use a Noisegate inside Descript. Got any tips?

[marcelabrack]

Hi there, amazing software and will definitely get it! However, I wish you had played the audio in this videos to see how the editing sounded like. For instance, if you delete a word, will it delete the breath sound one might have taken before that word? Hope my question makes sense.

[heidivanderlee]

Descript currently looks completely different so if you're hoping for a tutorial, unfortunately, this isn't the one.

[kendahlyanez]

Can you edit just the "correct text" instead of recording in the free verse?

[brietucker]

helpful, but seems like it needs to be update. The free version of Descript I'm looking at doesn't seem to have most of these features and the program looks pretty different. Is there an updated tutorial?

[loseweightwithmealplanning]

How do you get rid of all the breaths? Is that possible

[ScatteredReactions]

Im so confused on if i am able to record on windows though per the Website. though im able to download the software

[tommythomas]

How do you add space or a few seconds of silence? I have a transript where I need some space between my the host's question and the guest's response?

[sigfreed]

Does description work for four audio voice channels? I’m worried it either won’t work or will have a hard time with transcribing a little bit of talking over each other

[HoodieBets]

Is there a way to fade audio files in and out so it sounds cleaner?
