There is a lot you have left out, but this may be because you don't know that Audacity from the link you provide does not have all the "Codecs" needed to fully open Audacity's full editing abilities. These codecs are FFmpeg and newer versions such as this one doesn't have FFmpeg in its libraries. When trying to add the FFmpeg codec libraries an important DLL (avformat-55.dll) file is missing or Audacity ignores the avformat-55.dll and both Audacity and FFmpeg sites do not have a workaround to fix this error. I recorded a sound file on my Andriod 10.1 phone and the file format was in AMR and Audacity could not open or import the audio file. My workaround was to have VLC Media Player convert the AMR to an MP3 and then Audacity could open the file for editing. A video about Audacities advanced features and how to sort file formats that Audacity can not read would be very helpful.

Just want to let you know that you're still helping people like me even after 3 years have passed. Thank You.

Kevin, this was fabulous - as a long-time educator but novice podcast creator, I could not have asked for a better overview of how to get started using audacity, thank you SO much

This is probably my favourite tutorial I've ever seen for anything ever. You're essentially teaching audio editing fundamentals with a fun, realistic, yet easy-to-follow example; I imagine a lot of these concepts & tools carry over to other audio editors as well. Thank you very much for this excellent beginner's tutorial :)

Hey Kevin, this was my first training session for Audacity, and I must say it was top-notch. It was very well done, and the instructions were clear. Thanks, man!

I’ve been using Audacity for years and I’ve learned more from this single video than I can handle. Thank you!

I think this was a very clear lesson. Kevin spoke clearly and didn't rush his presentation at any point. Today is my first venture into the music business, and this removes a lot of the uncertainties I have had about this new venture. I have a very large inventory of lyrics, and I need to dive right in on the music. Thanks a lot, from Easy Seeker

Just wanting to give you a big thank you for presenting this video in a calm-easy-to-follow presentation. It has been many years since I tackled learning computer programs and a little hesitate to starting over again. You've given me the encouragement I needed to edit hundreds of talks, lectures and sessions to post for people to learn from. Thank you again for your help.

Perhaps the best presentation of Audacity on KZread.

Man! How often is it that you're left speechless after listening to a technical tutorial? I can only shake my head at the gift of teaching you have. Kevin, this is just amazing. I've been using audacity off and on for some years, but never increasing my knowledge very much. But now I feel I've grown exponentially in understanding the capability of Audacity. Thank you!

The simplest and most straightforward tutorial video for Audacity on KZread. Thank you Kevin👍

I have been learning audacity, trial by fire. This video has helped me to learn more of the basic fundamentals to apply, as I continue to learn the craft of podcasting. Awesome job Kevin!

I'm trying to begin doing voice over work, and eventually possibly try recording music. After watching this video, I feel so much less confused/overwhelmed about how to edit my files. Your explanations were so easy to understand and very practical - thank you SO much for providing this tutorial!

OMG. I'm not sure if I ever witnessed someone on a KZread video who gave such clear instructions. I almost gave up on Audacity until this video. Kevin, you are friggin awesome. Really!

honestly the best soft tutorial ive ever seen. short and straight to the point ! i love it

Great job, Kevin, you never failed to provide such useful and comprehensive yet clear and concise tutorial. It is very well planned and the transitions of each and every new topic is gradual, and that makes your lesson a very pleasant experience. If viewers who had watched your other videos are not yet convinced to subscribe to your channel, this surely will.

This is about as good a tutorial as I've ever seen. Well-paced, thorough but in layman's terms. Brilliant job.

I purchased my equipment and thought I was ready to jump in and record! Little did I know how naïve I was. Feeling more than a little overwhelmed with the technology I sought out lots and lots of KZread video tutorials before I found Kevin's. What a time saver and teacher. I think I am ready to really jump now into practicing. Thank you for the thoroughness of the lessons and the simplicity. Absolutely Subscribing for more lessons!

As someone who’s just getting started in voiceover work, this is invaluable information. I watched a few other videos on audacity. This one beats them all. Excellent work. Thank you for your generosity.

Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. A nice indepth beginner's guide that will see me one step closer to starting my podcasts. When the overwhelm is reduced, that's where you find great value.

from a newbie, you clearly presented all the nuts and bolts. thank you!

I've watched a small handful of Audacity tutorials from different content creators thus far in my journey in learning how to use this software, and most of them either cover the exact same minor basics, without delving into the next level up of info from that, or they OVER jump info, skipping to things that are a little too advanced to cover immediately after introducing those minor basics....because they don't wanna take the time to be REALLY comprehensive, but this one was really great, in that it didn't skip that middle level, or next step level of info! You taught me some really great beginner editing tips and tricks that I found super helpful for the lever of learning that I'm at! Thank you!! I'll be saving this one to come back and reference if I forget things and will be scoping out your other videos and hope they are much like this in that step-by-step method of learning this software! 🙂

I have used Audacity for a number of years to edit and process audio for my website. Now I am planning to make my own KZread videos, this video is just what I need.

Thanks for this, Kevin! I teach an educational technology class and I'm always looking for updated resources that I send to students who may not have caught everything in the class session. This is exactly what I needed!

Thanks for your video, especially the clarity of your voice and the tempo of the production (not too fast.)

Excellent tutorial, my man. This is probably this best type of tutorial one can get. Good verbal explanations, good visual shows, plus practical applications that are simple to build off of. Just excellent

This is such a good tutorial. I honestly almost skipped straight to 'record audio' but you were so straight forward and clear I ended up watching the whole thing just to record like five minutes of audio. 10/10

It's a few years at least since I used to use Audacity to make professional CD recordings to sell. This was a VERY detailed reminder of so much of what I did a lot of years ago. Than you very much!

The clarity, relevance, information and level of engaging presentation in this tutorial is incredible. I wish every piece of training I've ever completed was delivered by Kevin. I think I would be twice as smart as I am!!! Thank you Kevin.

This was incredibly helpful. I took one look at audacity, was immediately intimidated and never tried to use it. After watching this, I feel confident in my ability to use it for my business. Thank you so much!

You know that a tutorial video is great when you smile at the end and kind of feeling confident that you can replicate what the tutor did. Thanks Kevin for this wonderful gem of a video.

Kevin, this was phenomenal.!You blended your natural easy-to-hear voice quality with the definitive knowledge I need to do voiceovers with Audacity. I have subscribed and I look forward to greater and more expanded insights.

Discovering you on KZread has been the best thing that ever happened. You have helped me quickly learn aspects of certain programs. Thanks and keep them coming.

Thank you so much for this video! I used Audacity for a class assignment and this was definitely the best "how to" video I have ever utilized. Thank you for the learning experience!

I finally got Audacity to work. It was having freezing issues but learned that it was because of not updating my computer. Something so easy and took three hours to figure out. Suggestion for another video would be when we have issues with Audacity, freezing and not responding. Great videos, Kevin! Wish my Chemistry ones were as good as yours. Your voice is awesome!

Perfect! Easy to follow, great example and the analogy of the frame rates in movies was fantastic. Thanks for connecting the dots!!

I know very little about how audio recording and editing works and for a long time I have wanted to try recording my own podcast material and / or ASMR recordings. This video literally just helped me on a massive scale, super helpful, explained clearly, examples make sense, and most of all I don't feel stupid. You are a true hero. Thank you! - from one forever grateful audio amateur

Whew! So happy to have found your instructional video Kevin. I have NEVER done any hands on recording of any kind except through an app on my iPhone. I was overwhelmed when I first downloaded Audacity but with your help I've calmed down and feel confident I will be able to get comfortable with and eventually enjoy the process. Thanks much!

Kevin - as a technophobe who needs to learn Audacity, I say a huge THANK YOU!! What a wonderfully clear, logical, step-by-step video. Just fantastic!! 🙂

This was so unbelievebly helpful to just get to know all of the necessary features of the programme. I saved time by watching it at 2x speed but it was easy to follow. Thank you so much!

OMG...Dude...your a Lifesaver. I'm getting back into radio production and have been not only looking but wasting money on different recording software about 2-3 months now. It's all So foreign. I finally found Audacity. Came here and found YOU. I'm good to go now!!! Please, keep doing what your doing. You're educating, saving lives & money... Even thought not everyone tells you.

Wow as a Mac user I normally rely on Garageband but needed to check out Audacity for my next project. This is an absolutely fantastic tutorial covering every aspect to get you started. Love how you use a sample project to guide the viewer through all the necessary steps!

Thank you so much for this. I tried Anchor, SoundTrap, CyberLink and began to watch my podcasting dreams wither on the vine because they *are not* easy or intuitive. Neither was Audacity until I watched your video. Everything I need to do was explained along with some other tips and tricks to make the episode better.

This man's got a tutorial for everything, every few months I jump into something new and this channel comes up nearly every time.

Super clear and informative, thank you. "Compressor" was the thing I was hoping to learn about, but I learned at least 5 other neat things that's going to save me a ton of time going forward when editing my podcast. Thanks!

Well done, Kevin. I'm glad you took your time to explain slowly. Too many tutorials are too fast and it is difficult to learn when the speech is too fast. I haven't used Audacity before but I have just added a Tascam 24SD Portastudio I thought if I can send my recordings direct to Audacity I could Master them myself. I need to learn how to do that.

Kevin, you are the best teacher. You explain in such a way that things become so clear. Thank you.

Hey Kevin, this was a really amazing rundown of the basic functionalities of Audaticy. I really loved this video. Im just getting started with my podcast and all the tips that you had mentioned here will surely help. cheers.

This was fabulous. I have not done recording and only minimal video editing. I feel like this gave me everything I need to get a good grasp on Audacity, thanks!

this was unironically the best tutorial ive ever seen, I learned so much and im honestly not even scared of the program anymore. Thank you so much truly

This was an excellent, well thought out tutorial with easy to understand explanations. Thank you!!

Thank you Kevin for this awesome tutorial ❤😊

Thank you for this video! The app layout has changed, and while it's a bit of a struggle to follow in the beginning due to the changes, I appreciate this video very much. Your explanations as you go have been helpful.

This is fantastic, Kevin. I come from video editing in Final Cut and Premiere Pro, but wanted to use audacity for simple podcast edits. This taught me everything I need, including the shortcuts. Thanks! 🙏🏻

i absolutely love this. My voice over is about to take a creative turn.

Thank you SO MUCH for this, Kevin! It's an incredibly useful, well-organized, user-friendly tutorial and I truly appreciate it! Thanks again!

the best tutorial on Audacity that I have seen so far ! well paced, well covered ! Thank you so much 🙏

This is another biggy! A fantastic tutorial for the ones who don't know where to start!

Thank you SO. much for this amazing tutorial! :)

Fantastic tutorial thank you! I hadn't thought I'd ever wrap my head around Audacity & you explained and simplified it beautifully

when it comes to teaching any subject, Kelvin is like god honestly. perfect voice, easy to understand, he doesn't speak fast which makes the sound of his voice very pleasant and healthy to anyone's hearing. I wish Kelvin will start teaching programming languages like javascript, java, python and PHP.

Audacity is such a great tool to get quality sounding audio :)

Thank you for a clear and concise but pretty comprehensive introduction! Yours was the second intro video I found and so much better than the first. Everything I needed to piece together clips for a song, adjust levels, move clips, and add fade/compressor effects was covered. Keep it up!

This was so helpful! I am a total newbie to recording and editing audio files. Thank you for putting these tutorials together!

Thank you Kevin, i am not a beginner but I watched it fully to not miss any basics. THanks a lot. I like your explaining.
