Tasks

Task no.1

Evidence verified by: un organisadó di aktividat

Find a space and make some noise. 
Try and find somewhere that you can create an echo, this could be an enclosed space of any sort, an empty cupboard or a room in your house or flat. If you can use your phone to record the sound of your voice in this space. Using something soft, try and dampen the sound you create to remove the reverberation (echoes). Then you can record your voice again on your phone. 
﻿
Once you are in the Sound Booth at The Old Electric how does your voice sound? Maybe you want to make a recording of your voice again? 
﻿
Share with us what you have discovered and how different the sound is. You can even share with us the audio recordings you made.

Task no.2

Next up we’ll need some equipment. 
﻿
To successfully record a podcast you’ll need some inputs, somewhere to record and somewhere to edit. 
﻿
For this you will use a mix of inputs, hardware and software. Your inputs (which are also technically hardware) will allow your voice to be converted to a digital signal which can be recorded. This will be recorded by your hardware and can then be edited by your software. 
﻿
From speaking, can you identify the sound signal path and what equipment your voice will have to travel through to then become an audio file on the computer?
