Re-using existing recordings also means it feels familiar to our customers, even if the message is different.Record: starts recording audio from the program. Using Audacity has allowed us to be cost effective and nimble with our existing recordings as we can modify them to suit current needs rather than requesting and paying for new recordings. It is mostly used within our IT and Marketing departments to create new sound files with speech, or modify existing sound files we have to better suit a project via trimming and joining in different order, and saving in the correct format. The main functions we have used is recording, both from microphone but also from playing computer sounds (what you hear), and editing functions: We have also used it for other projects such as editing sound files for corporate videos.

Our primary use of Audacity within our business is for the editing or recording of sound files to use in our PBX phone system. That said, Audacity is perhaps one of the best audio solutions on the market, and it doesn't hurt that this is free. I feel like a newbie and perhaps I shouldn't be one at this 'late' stage. I've done more than 40 hours of editing since I've started but I still don't feel confident I understand how to amplify the volume in text or to reduce it. You may need to refer to help documents on a regular basis for every podcast I've recorded, I've had to revisit another help issue. The interface looks very professional, but to that end, it's also intimidating to use and it's difficult to figure out how to do things at times. In particular, Audacity doesn't seem to have a seamless solution to remove echo, and many of the various help documents seem to suggest that a paid plugin would resolve this issue none of them work. While out of the box, you may require some free plugins to process the audio file you work with, some of the functionality for more advanced tasks requires paid plugins that may not necessarily even resolve the issue.
