Technobus Tales is a podcast about my library work that I conducted while working on the Technobus, helping people with all sorts of Tech help. Each podcast will focus on one problem, the troubleshooting, followed by the solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recorded my own voice using my Mac computer with a Snowball Mic and Shock-Mount in a low noise environment. I edited using Logic Pro X which came preinstalled with my Mac. I used the Freesound website to search for the sound effects and music I used. I found Inspiring Space Piano loop which gave a sense of wonder to my voice. I added the sound effects of background phone ringing and dial-up internet along with an opening door sound at the end, all of which I lowered the volume for the mix. I looked for an ambient sound for a bus driving around and discovered Journey on the Bus, which is a portion I sliced and cut that did not have any voice popping up, and at a lowered volume, worked well, adding that ambient bus sound in movement through a city sound. It took a while to realize I needed to bounce the finished file in order to save it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
