Re: Using Your iPhone for Recording

Just an update...I downloaded the free app Wavepad Audio Editor which is free and am using that to record as a .wav file.

Re: ~[GROUP] - Robin Hood by Paul Creswick - gu

I cannot believe how much I struggled with this chapter! I hope this edit works, I not only struggled with the reading but with the editing. Note to self, Paul Creswick might be nice to read but not out loud, not for me! :) http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/gu/robinhood_05_paulcreswick.mp3 I ...

I had signed up for chapter five but am not going to be able to do it after all. But I did get some help with pronunciation if the future reader needs it viewtopic.php?f=23&t=35404

Re: Using Your iPhone for Recording

Also, when holding it in your hand, it will pick up any movement of your hand on the phone. You have to remain calm. lol. I always suggest some sort of stand. LOL, this is why I love it more than my headset. A LOT less noise than with my headset. I have a pretty lousy headset! I noticed a couple of...

Yes please, that website was helpful for Falchion because it is English, but they only had English at that site, no French. Thanks Nadine!

Re: ~[GROUP] - Robin Hood by Paul Creswick - gu

Thank you Symmie for your chapter!! The only thing thing is the file name is just "creswick" and not "paulcreswick". Otherwise the ID tags are good. Chris Donnelly Do you need me to change it an upload again? I am so glad everything the other tags were correct! YAY! :clap:

I will, thank you. I finished editing my first try at this last night and did...
