One of the things that I do in my work- edit audio clips for podcasts and other media productions.
I have a couple of tools on my Mac that are standard tools--a piece of freeware called Audacity, and Adobe Audition. (Not to mention that Garage Band comes with the Mac OS)
I have been using Audacity for years, and like the ease of use, and the ability to quickly edit a piece of audio.
I have only been using Audition for about 18 months. It is one of the best tools out there, and I have not used all of the options available to me. It is more than I need for my use (and I would never pay the price to personally own it).
So, the experiment had me looking for apps that could help me edit audio. I ran across the Beautiful Audio Editor App over the weekend and thought I would try it out.
The first tests were conclusive-it can be done.
Was the recording capability as good as my current set-up in the office? No.
Was it easy to use? Yes. Even someone who has never edited audio before could earn it in a few minutes.
Were there many options for editing? Not a huge amount, but adequate for a simple project.
Was it worth the price? Yep, free is good.
So, here's a first project that I tried in the app (and then I uploaded it to my Spreaker account so that I could post the widget below):
What do you think?
