Your rst podcast
Start to produce your rst podcast by recording your voice or a tune played on your keyboard. The built-in
audio interface of the UMA25S controller lets you vary the input level of the audio material you’ve picked
up through the headset’s microphone to achieve the optimal recording level, while you monitor the sound
with the headphones. Using the included Audacity recording software, you can record, edit and save your
sessions to your computer’s hard drive. Simply click on the record button and Audacity will automatically
create a new track and record everything you pick up with your headset’s microphone or from any other
sound source you’ve connected to the interface. Be sure to adjust the input and output levels accordingly.
After you have nished recording, youcan edit and then export the recorded material to a common
audioformat.
Now that you have a nal version you would like to publish as a podcast, go ahead and compress your audio
le to the MP3 le format (after you have installed the LAME encoder) or convert your le to an available
audio format of your choice. Simplyopen your audio le in the Audacity software application and use the
Export command in the File menu to save your le.
To publish your podcast, make your new le available online. Upload the generated le to a server with the
Podier software, which assists you to create a feed for your le, enabling you to enter such information as
your podcast’s URL and title. The feed of your podcast can nally be made accessible to the public by posting
it, for example, to an Internet portal. Congratulations, you have just published your very rst podcast!
