Even if it is in point form, it is very difficult to produce a quality podcast without one. <br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don&#8217;t stop recording if you make a mistake, instead, take a breath and count to 10 and then start that part over again. It is much easier to edit our mistakes later than to try and stich lots of individual sound files together later.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the special effects sparingly (those are the coloured buttons on the right). They can add to a podcast BUT they can be annoying if overused.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Downloading your audio file<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove the SD card from the back by pushing it in until it clicks and pops out. There is an adapter that will convert the card to USB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Insert the SD card and adapter into your laptop and access the card. The files will be chronological so you should be able to find the file with the latest date. (The data might not be todays as the Rodecaster may not have had the date set up accurately).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut and paste the file to your laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Return the adapter and reinsert the SD card into the Rodecaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Editing your podcast<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have finished your recording and you are happy with it then you do not need to edit it but that is rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several programs you can use to edit your audo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.audacityteam.org\/\">Audacity<\/a> &#8211; the easiest one to use and it produces excellent results.<br>Tutorial: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=R_mDWE83TfI\">Audacity Beginners Guide | Editing your podcast (youtube.com)<\/a><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Audition &#8211; this an Adobe product which you can download using Adobe Cloud and your EduPass account details.
