Parents as Partners

Submitted by Lornacos on Tue, 2008-01-29 13:57
This is a two way recording of a Skype to Skypeout conversation conducted with a parent, Rhoda Cipparone from Niagara Falls Ontario. The SkypeOut made it difficult to keep sound levels the same. Recording the Skype call was easy using nicecast and my MacBook Pro. Moderating and good interview style is very much a work in progress.

Audio Recording and Editing ~

Submitted by Lee on Sat, 2007-01-13 15:56

We will discuss audio recording and editing. If you have any questions about audio, Nicecast, settings, mics, editing, Audacity, Garage Band, or just want someone to test your set-up, please drop in at 3:00pm EST, on Thursday (8:00pm GMT).

I will post the show later for those who can not attend. Just be sure to get me your questions or concerns before the show and I will cover it for you. In addition, I will create any video screenshot tutorials that may help you and post them in an obvious place for experimenting later. Send email to [email protected] to contact me or comment to this post.

See the links below for a video tutorial and audio guide I have created. See you then. ~Lee Ann Baber

New Nicecast Screencast

 I just finished a new  Nicecast Screencast.

I tried a new version of screencasting. I made the camera follow the cursor. Just experimenting with SnapZPro X. The Nicecast tutorial I created before had some incorrect set up instructions in them so I am working on a new version. This now replaces the video shown in the Book of Webcasting. I kept the same URL address so if you used the last one as a link or reference, it will now show the new video.

Let me know if this style video makes you too dizzy! It is "kinda rapid"! ~Lee

Using Nicecast on a Mac

The Digital Chalkies and I tried broadcasting on the Sanbox Channels. It worked pretty well!

Things that worked:

We did not use Audacity at this time

Whenever you open Nicecast, you need to check your settings. Often the default settings appear even after you have reset them

Settings:

Source: Choose Audio Device: Choose your Mic.
Info: Name: Put in the name of your Broadcast
Quality:
Preset: Custom
Bitrate: 64 Kbps
Sample Rate: 44.100 Khz
Channels: Stereo
Cpu Usage/Quality: Least (up 2 notches)

Go to Window: Show Server
I used Sandbox B so the name I chose is SandBox B
