Audacity Forum

Gale,

Thank you so very much!

Could we use http://www.hightail.com/?

I can load the .wav file there.

You can use wherever you like as long as we don't have to log in or start trials to retrieve the file.

Otherwise http://free.mailbigfile.com/ is simple to use for sender and receiver.

Hi Gale,

http://free.mailbigfile.com/ seems to want an e-mail address to send the file to?

What would you like me to enter?

Thank you!

Have you enjoyed a good support forum for VideoPad?

I never used their forums but I already did my research long time ago and found out VideoPad to be absolutely the top (if not the only) alternative (the free version) to Windows Movie Maker so if you know ho to use the Microsoft one, there shouldn't be any problem by using the latter, its main advantages are more input/output choices, more effects, transitions etc. etc..
With this program you could load Virtualdub filters but I'm not sure if this option is available to the free version of Videopad though it has so many features so you can already do a professional job!
Just start playing with it and see how it goes.

Please see my Private Message. You can enter your own address. What we need is the web address of the file posted here. I'm not going to fix your file for you unless I'm the only one prepared to do it.

Gale,

I didn't realize you could just use your own e-mail addresses to send/receive so thank you for sharing that trick!

I believe this is the link ... http://mbf.me/IWYLic

Thank you so much for all your help.

Hi Audino,

I'm a complete newbie to video editing so I'm trying to teach myself as much as possible and started with Movie Maker because it was free (with XP) and easier to learn. I looked at Lightworks which is also free but that program presumes you have expedience and are familiar with the nomenclature of video editing so, at least for me, there is a steep learning curve.

Once Gale kindly helps me with now my finals steps in the aduio, I then plan on trying VideoPad.

I'm not familiar with Virtualdub? Is that another sound editing program like Audacity?

Thank you again for all your help and insight.

I'd probably just use a slow fade out at the appropriate point, and toward the end of the fade out, fade in the actual video soundtrack. Exactly where and how long to fade for is a matter of taste, but this is the sort of thing I'd aim for. (Using Audacity, the fade out was accomplished using the "Professional Fade" effect, which is below the divider in the Effect menu. The Fade-in was just a standard "Fade In" from the main Effect menu. The voice track was from a post to this forum.)

I don't know if I'm missing the point, but I thought there was no video soundtrack, and that the idea was to trim the Cline song to 34.78 seconds to fit the video by removing all but the start and end then fading the start into the end.


Gale

Gale,

You're exactly correct.

There is no video soundtrack just music to be trimmed to fit the video.

My apologies to all if I was inadvertently unclear about that.

Thank you for helping me to be as clear as possible.
