Creating a multimedia piece with music, natural sounds and images
Snow at the Beach
I woke up one morning in Lewes Delaware to a beautiful snow fall at the beach. I saw this as a chance create a multimedia piece of this usually beautiful moment and as a way to expand my audio knowledge base. Collecting natural sounds in a very uncontrolled environment, like the beach, presented some challenges; the wind, birds that do not like you to get close, cold hands, moving water and people talking to you about your audio equipment. Patience was the key, most of the sounds would repeat themselves. I could replay about the recording and make certain the recording was clear. Ultimately, I got some interesting sounds to mix with some music.
I then created a music track in garage band on the mac. I exported the song as a mpeg and imported the mpeg into Audacity. In Audacity I mixed the natural sounds with the music to mix.

The pictures are great but I’m really blown away that you created the music for this — I’m almost sure it’s off one of my wife’s yoga CDs, pretty amazing that you could do this.
Lisa,
Enjoyed the slide show. Loved the music too! Very groovy.
Is that a new regular website for you? How are you liking “livebooks”? Has a very nice over all look… and great images!
Cheers.
