Carlo Giordano Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 May be a stupid question, but how do you make an audio message for a sequenced show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vipzach Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Audacity has a record function. Just use your mic. Record it, edit it and put it into your show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-Paul Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Well my laptop does not have a mic. so I bought one and plugged it into my laptop. Then Vista has an audio recorder and so I fired up the program. Tapped on the record button and talked into the mic. When I was done I tapped the stop button and saved the file giving it a name like "intro", Intro Snoopies Christmas" and so on. Then I created a LOR sequence and imported the media like you would if it was a song. I could have just saved it like that, but I wanted some lights flashing, so thats what I did. I randomly flashed some lights. Then saved the files. Then when making my show I added the files with voice recordings to the correct spot in the line-up of shows.You might want to run the audio files through Audacity or what ever program you have for cleaning up any noise, compression and the volume leveling before adding them to a sequence.

Tim Fischer Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Audio announcements also sound much more professional when set to music (like a commercial). You can do this via multiple tracks in Audacity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-Paul Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I dont know Tim, to me that is a matter of taste. And I will say that more often than not. I prefer no music, but then too, I suppose there have been a few rare cases were the music fit the situation that it worked for me.As they say, each to their own. So, I will vote that no music just a voice. But like everyone owns one, and some are more stinky (thats me) than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
