How to Amplify and Bass Boost audio in Audacity

After signing into a computer, one which already has Audacity installed, find the Audacity program to launch either on the desktop or by clicking on the "start" button and clicking on "all programs."

Once you have launched the program, you will need to know about the most basic tools in Audacity. Refer to the picture below.






Now that you know the most basic tools, click "file" (at the top right of the screen) and look down for "Open." Choose the audio file that you want to edit. Click open in the pop up window.





Once you have your audio file opened your screen should look like this.





Now you can edit your audio file. Click and drag on the blue waves on whichever part you want to edit. Select the amount you want to edit. At the top, right above the record button, is the effect tab. Click on that and you will see Amplify and Bass Boost at the top.





First click on Amplify. You will then get a small box that says Amplify. This box will give you the option to adjust how high you want the amplification to be.





Once you click OK the amount of track you selected will be a bit thicker. Like this.





Next is the Bass Boost. Click on effect again and click on bass boost. This will bring up a box similar to the Amplify effect.





Once you have found out your desired amount of bass boost you want click OK.

You are done the tutorial for amplifying and bass boosting an audio track in the Audacity program.
