Using Technology

For my Preliminary task and my final radio making I recorded all of my voices using a shure SM58 Microphone with a pop guard. I often recorded a number of takes to give me more to work with when it came to editing, but also, so that I had a range of representations

During the recording of all my voices I carefully labeled each file to make it eaiser to access when it cam to editing the whole thing and when I need it. I created seperate folders for different things like for voices and sound effects.

Using the audio editing software Adobe Audition 1.5, I was able to cut out any mistakes from the voices that I recorded and removing all the gasps and unnecessary thing. I was able to cut elements from one take and mix them with sentences from other takes.

The multi-track feature on the editing software meant that I was able to layer a number of separate audio tracks and mix them in such away that music, sound effects and dialogue could be heard at the same time and appear to the listener to be blended seamlessly. The multi-track feature was particularly useful during the creation of my jingles, my advertisements and the outside broadcast's during my news bulletin, where I often needed to layer at least three audio tracks.
