[Journalists] Hello!!!

Welcome Itto!

Are using a Mac or PC? Audacity is free audio editing software that is fairly accessible for Windows but not that accessible on Macs - more information here: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Audacity_for_blind_users

Best, Patricia

Subject: [Journalists] Hello!!!

Hello fellow journalists, I hope you are doing well. I am glad to join this group. I am an audio-journalist and I have a list of questions: 

If you are an audio-journalist, what program do you use to edit, and why? I am learning how to use Studio Recorder. I am a beginner but I'm excited to become an expert! I also produce written content using Microsoft Word and Google Docs. Is there another program that is better than those?

When recording, Voiceover starts interrupting and when plugging the microphone I can no longer use Voiceover. Do you know of any device that is accessible for recording? Also, is there anywhere for me to train in audio production or do you know of anyone who could offer one-on-one services?

I am starting training on how to control soundboard. Have you ever had experience with that? Is it accessible and is it possible for me to navigate as a blind journalist?  My mentor is sighted and we both are taking this as an adventure! 

Thank you and have a good day!
