Resource for Wednesday: SoundCloud for Audio Recording & Podcasting

SoundCloud is excellent, and an extremely easy audio recording app. It is also a web-based tool https://soundcloud.com.  

SoundCloud really does make it simple to record, save & share your studio recording. 

Recently, SoundCloud introduced SoundCloud for Podcasting. It creates the RSS feed.  This is AWESOME,  Why?  Creating that RSS feed normally is not an easy task, but SoundCloud for Podcasting makes it effortless to publish your podcast to a variety of sources, including iTunes.   

 "We did the complicated stuff so you don’t have to. Upload to one place, and your podcast will play anywhere on the web, as well as in podcast apps.
  • Embeddable players. Share your tracks anywhere on the web, while maintaining control and insight into play activity.
    Twitter cards.  Sharing your episodes in people’s Twitter streams is as easy as copy/paste. In fact, we have seamless integrations with all major social networks.
    Timed comments.  Get even closer to your audience. See what they have to say about your podcast throughout each episode, and respond! Whoever said hearing a podcast is a solitary experience wasn’t hearing a podcast on SoundCloud

Take a look at SoundCloud for Podcasting,  it is uncomplicated to publish your audio recordings now!!  

Maybe you have always wanted to publish a podcast, but were not sure how to make it happen.  The solution - SoundCloud for Podcasting and iTunes might just be exactly where you want your recording to be published. Problem now solved!! Record your class lectures, your students, instructions, thoughts, etc.

I was recently in an elementary classroom and the kids were recording themselves reading.  The teacher told me she was using SoundCloud to document their reading progress and test for reading fluency and she shares these recordings with parents. The possibilities are endless and now there is a simple way to record & share.  You can publish your recording pretty much anywhere, including CANVAS, your blog/website or even keep it private.
