I like creating audio products, its easy to do, and easy to edit. I like the free audacity tool for recording. It took me a while to figure out a few things and I don’t know what I don’t know, but it produces good results. Just Google for Audacity. You might want to search for a quick start guide, although I figured it out without directions…eventually
There are full featured products in the $200 range that will permit you some additional capabilities, but I see no reason not to start with Audacity.
I record, edit and export as an MP3 that can be downloaded and listened to anywhere. It’s a great way to reach people who listen to information while jogging, or driving or relaxing. As such it’s a podcast that reaches the aural audience.
Audio recording are also a great tool for writing a blog post, report or major book. Once you create your outline, you speak your copy. You can edit as needed and even rearrange sections. Once done, you can get it transcribed. It tends to be much quicker than writing. This approach may allow more of your personality to show in the work and that is usually a good thing.
Just in passing, I should note that I got some useful direction on audio from Doug Champigny when I took his Powerstart 2010 course. Doug really did a good job with that one.
