hello and welcome to this my first segment tutorial in this tutorial we're going to create a simple a and B segment with narration and interview Simone and Kip ski have been creating crazy sounds together since they were kids in the city of Utrecht well we started way back when we were like 11 year old kids years ago skateboarding and then when we got tired we would just spend hours let's begin by importing the audio you've been out recorded the interview you've loaded it into your computer and now you can import it directly into Hindenburg you can also drag and drop directly from your finder let's try to look at some of the basic navigation to keep a better overview of your material suming is a great tool you can zoom out and zoom in on the buttons up here or you can use your shortcuts your playhead indicates your current position in the audio it's possible to move your playhead to any point in the audio for playback with your mouse you can click anywhere in the top area of the track or at the bottom when your mouse is an i-beam you can relocate your playhead so now press the spacebar to play back your audio and you can press it again to stop yeah my name is Simon now we're going to set in and out Marcus this we need to do because you want to select a specific area we want to work on if you want to cut move or otherwise manipulate our old you these are the in and out markers you can use the shortcuts I for in to set an in marker yeah my name is Simon Simon like a month has find the end you drag you want to go out and set an out marker with 04 out now we have created a selection we can move the in and out markers after the fact by just dragging a marker itself a month you'd wreck we can now listen to our selection by holding shift and pressing spacebar yeah my name is Simon Simon like a month from Utrecht yeah my name is Simon now let's turn our attention to the clipboard the clipboard is a tool that we're going to be using all through this tutorial a clipboard is a place where we can store our sound bites could be interview music ambience whatever you can call the group's whatever you like now we're going to take the selection we just made and drag it into the clipboard for later use here we can give it a new name so we can always remember what it was in this case my name is and we could also play back the clip directly from the clipboard we can just highlight the clip and press spacebar yeah my name is Simon Simon I commands from Utrecht now let's try to make a few more clips this time we're going to be using some new tools cut and split well we started way back when we were like you live now while we're listening through the interview we find there's an R that will like to get rid of so we're now going to drag a selection you can see it's an i-beam and as long as it's an i-beam we can drag it at the top and the bottom of the track to create a selection or we can use I and O the selection here we can cut that out and the r is God well we've started way back when we were like if we listen further there's another problem he says we used to go skateboarding twice we just need the one so we're going to cut out where he says we but this time we're going to use split going to place our play head and a split the audio so it's split into two let's locate the other we split that highlight the region in between and cut that out now let's listen to the final result when we were like 11 year old kids years ago skateboarding and then when we got tired we would just and that sounds fine now let's listen through to where we want to exit the clip right here and we'll keep the breath in there to move Clips around we can highlight it and as long as our cursor is in the middle of the region like this and an arrow we can hold down the mouse drag and move like this fades are something that we use all the time to create transitions if I highlight this region now we get some fade handles here in the corners actually there's a handled in the middle which you can't see which is trim and a feed and let the bottom if we just focus on the top one we can drag that and create a fade at the beginning here we would like to do a fade in as well well we start at first we need to split the audio here and use this room tone fade in so we have a beginning of this sound bite now we can take all the clips in this edit here and select them and drag them into our clipboard here we can give it a new name and just run through your interview like this so we have all these sound bites that we need for the segment and now we're ready to record let's choose an input arm the track and now we can see we have input on our track all we need to do now is just press the record button and we begin recording continue running through your recordings like this but if you do make a mistake whilst you're recording you can do a punch in just stop your recording go back a bit playback from there and when you're ready press the record button again and then you'll punch in now we can take all the voices that we just made add them to our clipboard we're basically ready to begin montage we have all our clips in the clipboard but maybe you still have some leftover audio lying around on your workspace now there's just not tidy so let's tidy up a bit selects everything and just delete it or press clear now it's all nice and tidy and we have begin laying up our sound bites let's put this in at the very beginning of the workspace my name is Simon Simon I commands from C Mon and get key let's stop roughly where we want our first voice are to come in here we go the levels are automatically set you can just add a failing shift key Simone and caps key have been creating crazy sounds together since they were kids in the city of ultra had a fade at the other end as well a signal next clip direct we used to go skateboarding this time we would like to add a fade by using a shortcut I think the way to do that is we want to place our playhead where the fade begins and just press f there you go we've made a fade let's do the same here in Reverse replace up playhead where you want the Fate to end and press f and it creates the fade forest examples sword over that simulacrum at the Simone of one more time place the playhead press F as your fate continue doing these two you've used all the clips in the clipboard and now you're ready to export here you can choose the file format that you would like to use and over here you even have some more options the most interesting one being without pneus you can choose the overall loudness normalisation for your export for podcasting minus 16 but for broadcast radio minus 23 or minus 24 you can also save your favorite settings now press ok this case i'm using minus 16 give it a name save your segment a few seconds later you're all done and congratulations you've just finished your first segment
