Audio editing can be a very useful tool no matter what you do for a living. I am a big fan of photography and I plan on getting a nice camera in the coming months so if I end up shooting some video I can use my new audio editing techniques to tweak the audio however I so choose. I also like making my own playlists for when I go to the gym or just for regular listening. Audio editing can be used for playlists to trim down parts of songs that are unnecessary or can be used to take out parts of songs you don’t like. You can also use it to combine tracks and make your own songs using acapella’s and  instrumentals. I have used programs in the past like Sony ACID to create all kinds of things. You can make long mixes of all of your favorite songs and basically be your own DJ. Audio editing can also be used in many professions. If you are interested in being a DJ at a club or being on the radio audio editing will be a major part or your job. You can also expect to use audio editing a lot if you are a producer or if you have any part in the music industry. Audio books are becoming increasingly popular so editing the audio for them is also a possibility. The movie industry has a major need for audio editing as soundtracks and sound effects are a huge part of every movie. Especially for animated movies, where the entire movie is one long audio track of people doing voice overs for the animated characters. In conclusion audio editing is an extremely useful skill to have and I am very excited to fine tune my skills in this next lesson.
