Note: to highlight and copy specific areas of an audio file, click where you want it to start and drag to where you want it to end. Hold down the command key and hit the letter “ A” to highlight the entire file then hold down the command key, hit the letter “ C” to copy the entire file. Select the music file you will be adding as background to the audio file you recorded by clicking anywhere on the music file. To mix the music file onto the file you recorded, do the following. In the example below, Narration (tutorial).mp3 is the selected file therefore, this is the file that will be affected by the control buttons. You can tell which file it is because the window of the files that are not selected will be grayed out. The recording and editing controls will function on the file you have currently selected. Once you have loaded a music file, you will see both audio files open. You can also use the Load CD button on the top menu bar. This feature will allow you to use WavePad to convert your songs to mp3(another nice feature of this program). On the top menu bar, click on the WavePad “ File” menu > “ Load Audio CD Track(s)…” This will open a separate window that will allow you to navigate to your CD, select your song, and click on Load. WavePad also allows you to load music from a CD. Once the column view has been selected, when you click on a song in a folder, to the far right you will be able to see to see a list of attributes about the file including “ Duration” (which tells you the length of the song). You can find the length of the music by following the steps below:įirst, you must click on the columns list view icon. You can find the length of your voice audio recording by looking at the “File Info” window. ra, and many other formats.įor this part of the exercise, choose a file that is as long as or slightly longer than the file you recorded. WavePad will import a variety of music files including the most common. Locate the file that contains the music you want to use. So be prepared to do some experimenting before you get the mix to sound exactly the way you want.įirst, open a music file by clicking on File, then Open File, or click on the Open File icon.
Even after years of experience, you will find that each piece that you mix can always use some tweaking.
