Audio Editing

After dealing with lots of photo editing softwares, we moved to harder task which was on audio editing. Frankly speaking, I never thought of doing anything on audio. It is not in my list of interest. Moreover, nothing much can be done on audio compared to photo which I could have mountains of ideas to adjust and edit a single photo.

For this week task, I had chosen a song entitled 'Underneath It All' to be edited. To do the editing, I had to download suitable and meaningful softwares and this had made me tired of selecting useful softwares. I had installed and tried some softwares but all of them seem to be almost the same. They offer the same features. Lastly, I found a software called Expstudio Audio Editor and by using the software, I managed to do some interesting editing.

For my audio editing task, I had chosen the song 'Underneath It All' by No Doubt to be edited. I made some adjustment to the song. I had changed the woman's voice to man's voice, then there was a part where I changed the voice into chipmunk's voice. I used the function of Vibrato to make it vibrate for some seconds. It also offers a feature to change the normal voice to the voice of Zeus, fade in and fade out, and many more.

While doing this editing, I thought about the use of this when teaching later. At first, I did not see any purpose but after thinking about it for another times, I guess I could exploit this when dealing with children later. Using this, I could produce interesting audios and musics, for them. I could play an audio where a chipmunk is reading a text or telling a story for them for my listening tasks maybe. By having this, teachers may attract their attention to focus on the recording thus, increase the learning effects in class. Feel free to try this out k.! Happy editing =)
