  Recording Audio
To work effectively with digital audio, it is important to understand some basic terminology and properties of digital audio since you will come across these terms as you edit your files.
Audio files should always be captured and edited at the highest bit-depth and sample rate available - usually 16-bit 44.1 kHz stereo audio on most consumer level hardware.
However, if you start doing a lot of audio editing and want to be able to work with play lists, control the effects you apply to your audio with greater precision, have a greater choice of plug-ins and import / export file types you'll want to choose the regular version of Sound Forge.

 Audio Editing
Audio editing is as much an art as it is a science.
Editing is done after your material is transferred to digital on a high-end computer, although we can (and occasionally still) wack things with a razor blade and splicing tape.
Audio editing on a computer demands different skills than splicing tape.

 Transom Tools: Audacity
The $450 price is still quite a bargain for an audio interface with good mic pre-amps and an editing and mixing program with plug-ins, but even that expense is an impediment to some, and the fact that the M-Box must remain connected to use the program is a turn-off to many.
Edits are "destructive" in the sense that they are not always editable, but deletions and volume envelopes and effects to not overwrite the original sound files Audacity projects save quickly, as small ".aud" instruction files.
Once you have your elements edited and on different tracks, you can slide them around with the time shift tool, and adjust their relative volumes with the volume slider at the left of the track window, or with the "amplify" command under the "effects" menu if one consistent level is sufficient.

 Audio editing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Audio editing is the process of taking recorded sound and changing it directly on the recording medium.
Audio editing was a new technology that developed in the middle part of the 20th century with the advent of magnetic tape recording.
Audio editors would listen to recorded tapes at low volumes, and then located specific sounds using a process called scrubbing, which is the slow rocking back and forth of the tape reels across the playback heads of the tape deck.

 AVS - Audio Editing - SoundForge
Audio data can be copied from a data window to the clipboard without changing the original file.
Cutting allows the removal of a section of audio data from a data window and store it on the clipboard until it is pasted or mixed it into another file.
Audio can be recorded using an existing window or done by creating a new window at the time of recording.

 Audio Editing
The most common form of audio editing is done using a wave form or graph that represents the values of the samples that are used to render the audio file when it is played by the PC.
By visualising the audio as a wave form, it is possible to alter and manipulate the audio using techniques such as 'cut and paste', that are familiar to most PC users.
In effect, an audio editing can be considered very similar to a word processor (such as MS Word(tm)) in that you can view the audio file and visually add, alter and move around the audio within.

 Digital Editing of Field Audio :: Vermont Folk Life Center Middlebury VT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Audio preservation digitization methods are governed by strict standards and best practices which the approaches outlined below, aimed as they are to assist in basic audio editing tasks, do not meet.
The conversion or transfer of field audio to a PC also provides a way to correct problems with your field recordings including raising the level of the recording if the sound on the master tape is too low, and removing extra noise such as tape hiss, electronic hums or background noises.
While the way this is done varies from audio editing program to audio editing program, the overall gist of copying, cutting and pasting sections of audio from a file is not all that different from copying, cutting and pasting text in a word processing program within files and from one file to another.

 Audio Editing with ProTools
For editing audio, the Trimmer is most often used to cut off the beginning or end of a region or to extend a region’s start or end point by clicking and dragging the beginning or end of a region left or right to shorten or lengthen the region.
By scrubbing over a digital audio edit point, you can listen in closely to find the exact edit point, which may not be obvious just by looking at the waveform.
Yet, with nondestructive editing, instead of creating brand new audio files for each small part of the track shown in figure 4.2, Pro Tools simply directs the hard drive to the place where each part of the audio track is located on the original source audio file, in the order determined by the edit playlist.

 Basic Audio Editing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This not only assures seamless edits, but also allows very intricate edits and crossfades to be done without having to wait for the workstation to think about what you are asking it to do, and then for it to redraw the waveform at the edit, which happens with practically all other workstations on the market.
But any additional editing beyond this, so called "micro editing", will be charged at an additional hourly rate.
For intricate edits, you may be required to attend the editing session, which will not exclude you from getting the special rate for the mastering package - you will actually only attend the editing portion of the session.
