Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Lisa, implied Dean/Sam
Rating/Warnings: PG / Spoilers for 6.01

Recorder's note: This is my very very first attempt at recording any sort of fic, so critique is welcomed. Also, what's the best program for recording/editing? I was using Audacity, and every time I messed up I had to re-record the whole thing. Thanks!!

I've found that if you mess up, just take a pause and continue or repeat the sentence you messed up on. Then when it's finished you can go back and cut out the mistakes. It's a process that works really well for me.

Also, congrats on your first podfic!

I use Audacity, also, and have been for a couple of years - I like it a lot.

Just keep going if you mess up - repeat the part that you flubbed until you get it right. It's easy to cut out the mistakes. I make a clicking sound (sort of like "geeing up" a horse) It will make an obvious visual cue on the track. Then, highlight the part you want to cut and hit the delete key.

You can also paste replacement phrases in if you need to, using cut and paste.

Use "pause" instead of "stop" if you need to stop recording for a while. Hitting "stop" means you start a new track when you start up again.

Cybel is right - [livejournal.com profile] podfic_tips is a great resource.
