Personal Reflections

I had to change a bit the order of steps in thechecklist given in the lesson, because that's

the way how the things work in Audacity. Had problems with equal sound level of

many parts which I recorded separately and

with various pieces of equipment. Had many technical difficulties andsucceeded to record the video from manytakes. :(
