Oh my, ezwa,
these must win the prize for most elegant bloopers.
how enamored I am of French.

ooo, but, these are very very faint.
could you do me a great huge favor?
could you send them as wav files? Do you have them in Audacity?

If you use Audacity, could you increase the "gain" this way:
in the little box at the left of your track, slide the ... thing that slides ... to the right one or two marks (so it will say +3 dB or +6 dB).
Then export it as a wav file and send again.

These are WONDERFUL! thank you!

Oh, the song is Pour, O Pour the Pirate Sherry
How utterly utterly utterly delightful!
I could try to add an alto to the mix ... if I can find my way through the thread to the right spot (can't actually read music, that's a handicap, eh? sure it is)...
Delightful delightful delightful!!!!!

I have to agree with Anita. Sometimes while browsing the forum, I just turn that file on and listen just for the pleasure of listening :D

Woops, I didn't pay attention to the sound level. Here they are in .wav.

I didn't know one could do it that way. I usually select the whole thing go into "effet", select the "amplify" option and take it as it is.

We'd love to have you! Come on over(please don't be afraid of the monster thread) Everything you need to know should be in the first post, I've been trying to keep it updated. If you have any questions just ask, I've been pretty much living here lately so I should be able to get back to you fairly quickly. This goes for anyone else who would like to try recording any of the songs. Any help would be appreciated, one song, (ten songs :wink: ) whatever you have time to contribute. :D

Nope, you don't have to read music. There are these AWESOME midi karaoke files that someone found, so as long as you have a decent ear, you can pick up the melody, and the words are fed right to you. It's pretty keen. :)

Not really a blooper but just funny to hear out of context: http://www.anniecoleman.com/resources/baaa.wav

And here's a definite blooper. I started laughing at the story and couldn't stop. Huck has hidden a slab of butter on a corn pone under his hat (don't ask why) and hilarity ensues.
