For the full definition of what a podcast is, you can check Wikipedia or something but for our purposes they are simply audio files that contain lessons; the question you are probably asking if you are on this page is “How can I make my own?”

If you already own a PC or Mac the answer is "Easy"

1) The first thing you need to do is prepare what you want to say, so get writing! Remember planning prevents poor performance!

2) Choose some recording software. If you have a windows PC you can check:

  • Start
  • All Programs
  • Accessories
  • Entertainment
  • You should find the windows sound recorder. Click the red button and away you go

Alternatively you could download Audacity from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/

Audacity gives you access to special effects on your audio recordings and effectively turn your PC into a very capable audio recorder.

3) The next thing you need is a microphone. Your computer might have one built in. If not, you can get a cheap one from any number of computer shops or pay thousands from a musical equipment retailer - make your choice.

To get mutitrack facilities (more than one track that you can mix together with sound effects/music/etc) then download KRISTAL from http://www.kreatives.org/kristal/index.php?section=download

The best news is it's all free so get recording and let us know how you get on!
