This course goes way beyond the basics and will help build your confidence and increase your abilities and skills in using Audacity as your podcast editing and production tool. As the name implies this course is for anyone, beginner to advanced, who wants to learn skilled methods of audio editing and production using Audacity. Because of that, there are no prerequisites for this course. Beginning students are encouraged to complete each lesson in the order presented to get the most benefit from the course. But more advanced students may want to complete the lessons most relevant to them. The choice is yours. The course consists of 54 lectures distributed across four sections:

1. Beginning Audacity Bootcamp

2. Intermediate Audacity Bootcamp

3. Advanced Audacity Bootcamp

4. Updates and Bonus Lectures

Along the way, we explore topics like graphic EQ, the filter curve, noise reduction, manipulating audio waveforms, compression, normalization, sample rates, voiceovers, voice frequency, the draw tool, the zero-crossing tool, the limiter, metadata, LUFS and loudness normalization, the noise gate, stereo vs mono, templates, filters, multi track editing, amplify and silence, and Audacity plugins. Section 4, Updates and Bonus Lectures, is where I add new videos as needed to keep the course fresh and up-to-date. As new versions of audacity are released, this section is where we'll discuss what's new in each new version.

If you're looking for a course in Audacity that teaches both the basics of Audacity and takes you beyond the basics to advanced levels of instruction, this course is for you.

Well done with clear explanations. Didn't take it for the podcast feature but to learn the program for digitizing records. The Effects explanations were very helpful and I especially liked learning about the macro capability. Thank you!
