Thanks for the post Natalie. I was making a new model with a Halloween theme for our flight simulator, Digital Aircraft Modeler. I made a flying witch. I needed to figure out how to give her a creepy cackle. I ended up using Audicity. It is simple to use and did a great job. You might get a kick out of seeing the radio control flying witch in the user area model pages at http://www.digitalaircraftmodeler.com. Thanks for the good advice.

Here's a somewhat more recent post on recording: http://musicmattersblog.com/2006/04/17/recording-made-easy/. I don't think I have any expertise with the Audacity software beyond what I've outlined in the posts, however I will try to do a post on file conversions. I may also try to do a video outlining the process of recording on the Clavinova and transferring to the computer for CD burning. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hi Natalie,
I agree with Willard. Can you find someone who can give an update? I have the lame file he talks about but still can’t do the editing with Audacity that I need to do. Another topic could be on converting files from one format to another – .wav to mp3 – mp3 to .wav and so forth.

Hi Natalie,

I noticed that the date on your “Record Audio CDs in Your Studio is 2005. Do you have any new information to add to your article? I read someplace that a free program called “Lame” (what ever that is)should be placed in the same directory as “Audacity.” I downloaded Audacity, but I’m having a problem understanding what to do with it in regards to transferring Clavinova files to my computer to make a CD. Any new information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Willard Crawford

Your blog is very helpful. I’ve been using one of the many mp3 recorders (http://www.sweetwater.com/c1006–Portable_Recorders) in my studio. I use the Edirol R09HR specifically. Instead of burning a cd, I have my students bring a usb drive to their lesson and then I transfer the file from the mp3 recorder to the usb drive. Depending on the size of the usb drive, the student can actually have multiple lessons to go back to if needed.

John~

Just plug the cable into the computer and then select line input. You’ll have to experiment with the level of input to determine what sounds the best. I’ve found that the input level in Audacity has to be almost zero when doing a direct line input from my clavinova to get the right sound level. Hope this helps!

Hi
Could you tell me when recording from the clavinova to the computer using audacity software,how the set up in audacity is set up?
When i open up the audacity software,there seems to be more steps involved in recording.For example the program gives you a choice in choosing line input, or micinput or auxilary ,cd player etc. which do you choose.i have already recorded and edited the songs in my clavinova(309Gp)and i want to save these recordings in audacity so that i can burn a cd .

Thanks, John

Thank you very much for visiting my site! Could you manage to listen to my midi files? I hope to improve in creating audio files from midi files.
I like your site very much: it is really useful for music teachers and reflects your love for teaching and your great energy.
Bye!

[...] Now that you’ve learned how to do audio recording right in your studio and present your students with their own CDs, you probably want to be able to create attractive custom CD jackets to insert into the case. Look no further! I’ve created a template that can be used in MS Word to do this very thing. [...]
