I have bounced around like a pinball from DAW to DAW for the past years. I have recorded on Logic and would have stayed with Logic if I could but they went Apple and I could not afford to buy a mac.

So then I went with Samplitude but I could not afford to keep upgrading and eventually leased Sam 11. It was great. I loved the software. I could not justify continuing the lease though and I went back to Sam 6.

Things had progressed too much for me to continue with Sam 6, so I fell into Reaper. I recorded To The Pip with Reaper.

Reaper is a great low cost option but I could tell the sound quality was just a tiny step down.

I was a Beta tester for Propellerheads Record and I knew I would buy it when it came out. It just took a while to get around to it. I am happy I did. It really is a bit of a shot in the arm for my studio.

I am not ready to record Buzzword cause I am still trying to figure Record out. But I need to record something to play around with the software and figure out what goes where and how it all works together. So I recorded Sweet By And By.

Perhaps I am taking a detour to another little project??

This simple device is becoming a "staple" in my lessons. I plug it to my computer, open Audacity (a free, open source software for recording and editing sounds) and I start recording my students. they usually have a conversation with a partner or they do a little presentation about themselves. They love it because for some reason they love listening to their own voice. So the magic happens: once they have recorded themselves, they listen to their performance and most of the time they want to do it again
because they have spotted a pronunciation mistake or a grammatical error! I mean, how often do you hear students wanting to repeat themselves when they speak in another language??? The recording exercise allows this magical phenomenon to happen! And even better, students love it when they know their recordings will be embedded on the school blog and therefore available for the world to listen to.

This week I have decided to try to use it as often as I can in an attempt to make my students visit the blog and leave comments. I have noticed they do visit the blog but they have not yet stepped into the commenting phase. Do you have any suggestions to make students comment on a blog?

If you haven't tried this yet, please do. You can find microphones at a very affordable price and they are so easy to use with Audacity. You can then save your recordings as .wav or.mp3 files and easily embed them onto your blog or website. You will see your students being motivated to SPEAK ;)

What about you? what do you do to make your students speak in another language?
