6.3 How to set your Zoom and Audacity preferences for all Workouts
Each month, when we hold the Workout(s) you’ll attend, along with the ProConnect LIVE session you’ll attend, you want to be sure to get your settings right in both Zoom and Audacity, so we can all hear you through your VO microphone, and you can hear us through your earbuds or headphones.
Watch the quick video above and set your Zoom and Audacity up for success with the settings we recommend.
These settings are likely different than your typical settings for Zoom, since usually when you do a Zoom meeting, you’re using the built-in microphone and speakers of your computer.
But with us, we want you to sound amazing, so your coach can give you the best feedback.
Same goes for Audacity. The settings for the performance Workouts are the exact same as you’d use for recording auditions or work, but we want to go over them to be sure you’re good to go. There’s nothing quite as disappointing as recording a whole bunch of stuff in Audacity with the wrong (or no) mic selected.
is setting Zoom up for workouts and ProConnect Live a one-time thing or do you have to do it before each workout?
Unless you change it, Zoom will remember your settings.
