3. What is a podcast?
A podcast is a form of broadcasting over the
Internet.
Usually broadcast as a series.
Term grew out of iPod broadCAST - podcast.
A vodcast includes video - podcasts can also.

4. Using Garageband to record
a Podcast
Garageband is a simple way to record and edit a
podcast.
Open Garageband, choose New Project, choose
Podcast from the display.
Check your headphone settings under
Preferences - input / output should have
Logitech highlighted / ticked.

5. Go back into Garageband
Click on the + on the bottom left of the screen
and choose Real Instrument from the pop-up
menu, then click on Vocals. (The + will give you
another voice under Tracks - it will show No
Effects until you choose one).

6. You can choose a different voice for a character if
you are creating a story / drama podcast.
Do this by going to the right-hand side and
clicking on Vocals. They will appear beside this
bar.

7. Click on the one you like - that suits your
purpose. When it appears in the track, click to
highlight - that’s the voice that will be recorded.
To record, click the red button. To stop, either
click the red button again or hit the space bar.
