Today, you will be recording your broadcast!! Follow these steps VERY carefully.
1). These headsets were purchased with money from a grant from the College Station Education Foundation. BE CAREFUL WITH THEM!
2) The headsets have two plugs: the red is for the microphone and the blue plug is for the earphones. Be sure you plug them in correctly!
3) Open Audacity. The icon is on your desktop.
When you click on the icon, a “Getting Started” box will pop up. Click “OK”
4) Click on Edit and then Preferences (at the bottom of the list). Change the Recording Device to “MME: HD Audio Front Mic.”
5) Your headset has a volume control on the cord. Be sure the volume is on!
6) The round red button is the record button. Press record and talk! Try a 5 second test record to make sure everything is working, then, delete it, and record your broadcast!
7) When you are done recording your broadcast (and before class time is almost over), you will save your audio file. HERE IS HOW:
Go to File, and then EXPORT.
Save the file as an MP3 file in your H drive.
The “Edit Metadata” box will pop up. Click Ok.
8) Before you close out Audacity and close your file, verify that the file is in your H drive.
9) Now, email the MP3 file to me at cwellmann@csisd.org.
