It's a mess, the adapter appears to actually be letting the audio out right channel slip into the microphone input. And, as you suspected, it is also sometimes going through the laptop microphone instead of the plugged in microphone. insane.

I'm trying another possible fix.

Ok, after so many months delay, I've finally got an adapter that works so I can start recording again. But, no surprise, I'm not entirely satisfied with the results of the new setup. this is my old test on the old computer, what I was recording with previously and this is the new computer with the n...

I am very frustrated. So, first, my old computer gives up the ghost. Then, when I get the nice new laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad e555) I'm thinking that it should really improve my recording quality, newer sound card! BUT, it comes with a combo jack that I can't make work with my microphone! So, I order a...

my mother-in-law is doing much better now, thank you.
I ordered the new connection that should let me use my mic on my laptop way back before Christmas. They must be shipping it from China because its not showing up until the end of January. Very frustrating.

Sorry for yet another long gap in work on this project. My mother-in-law went into the hospital, and that sucked up about a month of time. And my computer that has served me faithfully for the last 9 years finally gave up the ghost. That took time hunting for a new computer, repartitioning it and in...

Thank you!

Well, that case of bronchitis seemed to hang on forever, but I'm pretty much clear of it now, and its time to buckle down and get this long overdue project done! Corrections made in 69: https://librivox.org/uploads/kilteddragon/desireofages_69_white_128k.mp3 working on chapter 70 "The Least of ...

hello folks, just wanted to give an update and let you know whats going on. In November and the beginning of December things went insane and I ended up putting in a LOT of extra hours on another project and that kept me from working on this one. I figured I would make it all up over Christmas and Ne...

Chapter 69 24:20 ready for pl! Would have had this one in a lot sooner, but I spent a week at Big Bend helping with my son's high school biology trip and that sucked up two weekends. :) Lesson learned: Work may be hectic, but it's not as hectic as trying to corral over 30 sophmores for a week. :) I...

This is my new Mic setup: http:/mediacru.sh/_6hZ21_y7FJX

Primitive spit shield, but I think its helping. I need to get a small stand though.

Chapter 68 is uploaded and ready for proof listening. this if the first chapter recorded with my new mike. I also tried a homemade "spit shield" to see if we could reduce those plosives. Let me know if the new mike is working, and if I over amplified it. (or should amplify it more) thank ...
