How I edit my podcast with just a Chromebook (my 3 favorite editing audio tools)

Editing audio with a Chromebook was one of the biggest challenges that I had to solve when I started using ChromeOS full time.

You can’t use tools like Garage Band a Chromebook, so I had to come up with alternatives.

The good news is that there are several good web-based audio editing tools that work great on Chromebooks. Here are three free tools that I use to edit my podcast:

• 123apps.com (basic editing)
• Twisted Wave (intermediate editing)
• Soundtrap (advanced editing)

Note: it is possible to run the Linux version of Audacity on a Chromebook. This works fine for individuals, but isn’t a realistic option for K-12 schools with Chromebook deployments.
