About This Course

Welcome to the course "Audacity - Audio Editing and Recording for Beginners".

The idea behind making this course was to provide insights into Audacity software to aspiring course creators, audio editing enthusiasts, YouTubers, podcasters, audio producers, and beginner sound engineers.

By taking this course, you will be able to use Audacity for audio editing, recording, reducing noise, improving your voiceovers, and much more. The course is divided into small chunks of information. Each section/unit is specifically dedicated to a particular portion of Audacity.

In this course, you will learn about:

  • Downloading Audacity onto your computer, importing, exporting and saving files, and the difference between mono and stereo files

  • Basic editing functions: cut, copy, paste, trim and silence, duplicate, remove special, clip boundaries, labels

  • Advanced editing functions:  at zero crossing, mixing audio & adding background, multi-track editing

  • Effects and processing: noise reduction, reverb and echo, amplify, compressor, limiter, fade in and fade out, changing pitch, speed and tempo, equalization, normalize, high and low pass filter

  • Audio recording and improving voiceovers

By the end of the course, you will also discover a very special audio editing technique (the 5-STEP formula for improving voiceovers), which will exponentially improve your voiceovers and recordings.

So what are you waiting for? Enroll now and we'll see you inside.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
