Is there a beginners tutorial of how to add sound and voice to your videos? A one liner telling me to import a sound track won’t help.

For voice this should help:

Notice that Synfig is neither a DAW nor a NLE so sound recording and editing should be done in another program first.  
Audacity is the common choice if you quickly want to record something.
