Hello Everybody,

This is my introduction. I did not do very well, but I am sure that I will be able to edit it as we move forward with the topic.

Thank you,

Jamila. 

Seeing or hearing the word virtual audio cables is now enough to make me shudder in fear and revulsion.

Everyone is doing such a wondeful job recording their telephone calls that I got to wondering, could I do that way too? So to prove it to myself, I did. I am calling Dani, a friend in PA. You will hear me ask about Sharon at the end. She is Laura's sister, with whom Dani & I previously worked. Her sister is in a coma at JHU with a 1% chance of survival. 

I owe Cathy a note of thanks for her help with this one.  I had a few technical issues at the beginning and she patiently guided me through.  It really helps to have someone who's "been there" when you're first getting started.  

 My husband walked in mid-recording and the door alarm sounded.  So, beware the 3 beeps near the end.  I tried to tone them down a little, but couldn't completely edit them out. 

As I get started in Webcast Academy 2.2, I am encouraged by the many other voices that have posted before me, some only hours ago. Here is my brief intro with some ideas of what I hope to do with webcasting. I look forward to catching up with the rest of you and joining in the conversation.

Hi all!  Here's my intro for this week's assignment.  I really need to work on my webcaster voice.  :)


 

Called Jeff Lebow very late on Sunday night because I was so pleased to have recorded the Skype test lady to Audacity.  Here is a bit of the call with Jeff.  We are discussing the fact that I was somehow able to capture Skype audio (including myself) without the using VAC, which I think may be related to the fact that I have a kind of a snazzy sound-card setup that I use for recording music.  In case anybody is interested, it is a Creative Audigy 2ZS, which is a sound card with a break-out box (a separate unit wired to the soundcard) that allows for inputting

Okay - better late than never, I suppose.  I am trying to catch up with this class of interns (2.2.1) and hope that this audio introduction posts successfully.  Looking forward to talking to you all.

Not sure if I am doing this right -- but here goes.

 I don't have a usb mic yet for my mac -- but will do so soon.

I am going to try this entirely on my MAC -- though I want to go to the comfort of my PC...so please forgive me if I struggle.

I used Audacity to create this intro.....enjoy!

After many trials, I finally recorded a fabulous conversation with Durff.  Had fun talking.  Editing was tricky as our voices were mixed together and I sound much louder than she but for my first attempt, I think it went well.  Enjoy!

A try at the introduction! Enjoy!

Today is day 5 of our Webcasting journey!  The informal networks are helping in bringing everything together.  I am networking with teachers all over the world.  My cohort includes Bee from Brazil, Robin from the East Coast and Jen and I are Southern California.  The bookmarking of the webcast academy serves as a quick way to communicate with fellow interns.  Email seems way to slow and complicated compared to Skype Chat. So today Robin caught me online. We recorded our conversation and like Jeff would say "Batta Bim Batta Bum" or something like that!

Robin Ellis and I (Jose Rodriguez) spent a few minutes trouble shooting how to record two way audio using Audio Repeater and Audacity.  I go through the settings on a PC.  Have a listen as everything clicks into place!  

Let's try this again.

When I publish an audio comment to my blog, this is what it looks like. No flash. In order to publish, you would need to go to file attachments and browse your desktop find the file, then upload. Attach, wait a while as this happens, then submit, and wait while it uploads.
