We suggest sit in the room and make a short recording, when you play it back it’ll help you to identify any ambient noises. Turn off anything in the room that’s generating ambient noise, for example, a computer or air conditioning.Choose your place of recording carefully, insulated from street noise etc.And if you’re recording in a noisy environment use dynamic microphones. They’re relatively inexpensive whilst also being high quality (here’s a guide on how to get the most out of them). In LearnUpon, we use blue yeti microphones. You can do a lot of enhancements to the file in ‘post-production’, but there are some things that once recorded, are there forever. Setting yourself up to record the best possible quality audio is better than getting a mediocre recording and trying to fix it later. In this post, we’ll show you how you can use a free audio program to create high-quality audio for your eLearning courses. Not everyone has access to studio quality equipment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have great audio in your training courses.

Poor audio quality is one of the most frustrating things you can subject your learners to.
