First, you should know I am not a tech person so kindly answer my question in "layman-ese". Thanks! I created a powerpoint (Windows 10) that has inserted in it a few videos taken with my smartphone (Android). I have Camtasia on my computer, a video-editing program. I recorded my own narration for th...

Thank you, Koz. I didn't get an email so I didn't see your response sooner. I will try it that way - and I'll write if it doesn't work.

I'm not quite sure it's the sound I'm looking for. It had a kind of tinny sound. Interesting, though. What I wanted was...

Thanks for your quick answer, Steve. I downloaded Easy VoCoder (I'm not one to search for the tough way to do things ;-) but I didn't see that effect listed under effects. (I thought it would just appear there once it was neatly placed in the audacity folder). I tried clicking it and it didn't open....

To begin with I am not a techie. I'm making an audio book and I recorded someone who I would like to sound as if a character in the book is remembering this other person's words. I found a special effect called vocoder which I'd like to try. However, I already recorded the person in mono and this ef...
