Recording Screencasts in Linux & Building a Makeshift Studio

Microphone

A few weeks ago I recorded my first screencast, and this week I've been working on another one, and so I thought I'd share some "secrets" I've discovered in the process. While I'm by no means a professional, I figured that sharing this might help others with their screencasts, and prompt folks to share their tips too.

Software and Equipment

I use gtk-recordmydesktop to record the video. As much as I am a KDE fan, the KDE/Qt apps don't seem to work on Kubuntu.

Basic sermon recording using Audacity

Posted by raoul in Audacity, How To, Linux, Mac OS X, Open Source, Recording, Sermons, Windows

With more and more churches these days having an online presence, and with recent moves toward digitizing everything, a lot of churches are recording their sermons and putting the sermons on their web sites.

For churches that have not yet climbed onto this new bandwagon, it can seem a little daunting to start. They may wonder what new sound equipment they need to buy, as well as what special computers with special sound cards and expensive software are necessary to record their sermons.
