- NOTE: the blue wave form should sit in the Audacity window
such that the peaks of it stop short of the top and bottom
- Before editing your music, the recorded waveform will need to
be highlighted.
- To highlight your wave form, click with the left mouse button
on the left hand side of the waveform (under the L+R controls)
and the waveform will go darker.
- At this point the whole waveform can be edited. However if
only a section of the waveform needs to be edited (or saved) the
section required can be highlighted by placing the mouse over
the beginning of the section holding the left button down and
dragging it right over the area required and releasing it when
the end of the desired section is reached. This darkened section
will now be the only audio that will be edited.
- Alternatively click on the EDIT menu at the top left and then
click on SELECT then choose from: All (whole wave form), Start
to Cursor or Cursor to end.
- NOTE: after recording to the Computer, the USB cable may
have to be removed from the USB port in order to enable
playback later from the Computer.
Exporting your music files (.WAV)
- Once you have recorded and edited your music, you will need
to save your files to the computer. To do this, click on file and
move down to Export as WAV tab.
- Click on this and you will promptly be asked for the file name
of the music recorded which will be saved in the location shown.
At this point either make a note of the folder where your music
is saved or save it in a folder of your choice.
- This can either be an existing one or a new folder.
