 Dance Project 1-Application
2. Reveal where that song file is on your hard drive by clicking on the title in the iTunes music library and pressing open apple-R on your keyboard. Click the column view button to show the nested folders and trace the path back to your music folder. 3. Open Audacity, select "New Project" if one doesn't open automatically, and select "Import Audio" from under the Project menu. Follow the path of the nested iTunes you discovered in step 2 to find your song file. The path should look something like Music>iTunes>iTunes Music>Unknown Artist>Unknown Album>songtitle.wav 4. If you have another song that you want to combine with your first one, you can import it using the same steps in #1-3. 5. Be creative as you make your splits, cuts, edits, and decisions. The goal of this project is to (a) show your knowledge of splitting and combining audio, by (b) applying it so songs you already know. 6. Cut carefully around beats. Make sure you make your splits go right up to the next beat (the tallest waves) so that there are no "hiccoughs" in your music. 7. Save your project often! 8. Export the final file as a WAV and drag it into iTunes. I'll explain more about the end process of handing in your files to me in class.
