Audacity Instructions
January 25th, 2010
By reader request, I would like to make my Audacity instructions available for everyone’s use. This is a one-page, full-color handout appropriate for middle- or high-school students (and teachers of all technology abilities!). I use this sheet to introduce my students to Audacity, and I insist that they refer to it every time they record a project. It is focused toward simple projects using a laptop computer’s internal mic (like playing quizzes) and does not cover detailed editing, multi-track options, or external hardware such as interfaces or better microphones.

Man, I’ve been waiting hundreds of years for this! a thousand thanks. My 12 year old boy just started toying with audacity and I think the 10 year old is curious; this is going to really help them out (and really cut down on the “Hey, Dad….” questions
