Help Just How It Should Be......

I'm currently trying to pluck up courage to do some sort of mp3cast type gubbins - courage required since I have a voice that is a cross between a gravelly type squeak and some sort of Joyce Grenfell Public announcement system - so was recommended to have a look at acoustica MP3 audio mixer to get started. Well, even if you never intend to utter a glottalstop on the net, whip over there just to download the excellent help file that goes with mp3 audio mixer. This is how all help should be - eat your heart out Microsoft!

=========
1. Start MP3 Audio Mixer
SoundWarrior double clicks the MP3 Audio Mixer icon on his desktop. Okay, we could have left this step out.

2. Drag in some sounds.
SoundWarrior has a good sound of a cave-woman scream called arghhh1.wav. The sound is located in "c:\cavescreams\", which he finds, and then drags the sound’s icon onto the MP3 Audio Mixer window.

3. Drag in some more sounds.
SoundWarrior also drags in stampede.wav, the sound of a herd of Mastodons stampeding by his cave. Finally, he drags in an MP3 called "rockrolls.mp3", some of the latest music from "The Stoners"

4. Make a recording if you want.
SoundWarrior hits the record button and the record dialog comes up. He punches the record button on the dialog and screams into his microphone "You make fire now! I make fire yesterday!"

6. Export As an MP3 file..
He wants to put it on cavenet.com so others can be jealous of his work of art.

7. Find a Mastodon to chase? J
With all the time he saved, he can take the rest of the day off. Maybe he’ll draw some paintings or even sharpen a stick.

I can't promise that Sroka Sounds (for the musical magpies) will be half as entertaining but I've never laughed at a help file before!
