So with all this hardware and software you record an episode, edit it and mix in some music. I used a simple section of music as the “intro” and “outro” to each episode. With a large array of styles the Audio Book producer can find cheap affordable music to use on their recordings.

You can download a lot for free and there are various arrangements if you wish to use tracks on podcasts and audiobooks. With the curious tagline of “we are not evil” (at one point Magnatunes got flack along the lines of Napster but pays musicians for their work) Magnatunes is a bit like iTunes – a huge database of music. For eg you could make a part echoey like in a cathedral. Mixcraft is a paid for programme that allows for blending and mixing various sounds tracks into a recording as well as adding sound effects and making sections of the recording have the sound qualities of certain situations. Levelator evens all that out as well as boosting the volume of spoken word. When you are recording your voice will go up and down in volume. The Levelator automatically evens out the sound levels of an audio recording. You can cut and paste sections, delete errors etc. You can set it to take sound from various input routes. There are free software packages that you can use to record to and edit your audio bookĪudacity is a free to download programme that is easy to use. The key seems to be a good microphone and a good headset. Such a set up, with mixer, headphones, microphone, etc etc will cost £100s but on Podio Books there are suggestions for starting kits of less that $200 say. Serious Podio Books users, justÂ like regularÂ podcasters have mini studio setup that look like a radio studio: The help forums will give advice on kit to buy but a good microphone from Maplins or a similar electronic store is a starting point. It is best not to record using a Skype headset or similar USB microphone.

In particular read and re-read the instructions and how to guides. Get on the forums and learn a bit about the process. Join Podiobooks and download some books and see how they sound and are put together. If you are serious about this possibility you need to do some research. BUT it is best to see this as marketing and not worry about income. Podiobooks are also supplying some audiobooks to iTunes and a few other sites so there is potential for income. In practice donations are (according to the folk who run the site) infrequent but do occasionally happen.

In theory listeners CAN donate money to authors and in this case the author of the audio book will earn 75% of any donations. This site is a FREE to use and free to download site. There are a number of options whereby an author can go about doing this. Hopefully if listeners enjoy the book you will get feedback and possibly this can lead to reviews, sales etc. The idea here is to release the book as a serialised story. One option I explored was making audio books. Anything which gets the book “out there” and raises its profile is worth considering. An author needs to be open to any opportunities to market their book.
