[COMPLETE] Short Poetry Collection 118 - tg

[TriciaG]

Thanks! The poems themselves are fine. There are just some technical tweaks to make.

Volumes are a touch high; if you amplified, don't amplify as much. (They're about 3 dB high.)

Files are in stereo; needs to be mono. To fix it on THESE recordings (without re-recording), go to Tracks / Stereo to Mono.

ID title tag should be the name of the poem, not the file name. (This is especially important on collections like this, since I cannot import them from the Magic Window like on regular books.)

Those are the things that need fixing. The following is a suggestion:

You have some background white noise that should be easy to clean up. You could try a light noise cleaning. Here are a couple resources:
text instructions: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Noisecleaning_With_Pics
video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFSg9o37HMw

My settings are as follows:
Noise reduction: 12
Sensitivity: 0
Frequency Smoothing: 150
Attack/decay: 0.03

Hi there, thanks for the feedback, but how do I do the title tag and file name to be different? It just gives me the Track Title option (If I put the name of the file there, it changes the file's name to that as well)

Oh thank you so much!! But again, thanks and I'll definitely make sure to fix all those mistakes next time I record!!

I see you are using GarageBand. I'm not sure how you do it in there; people have figured it out, though. Perhaps you could ask in the Need Help? section of the forums?

Sounds great, I'll go do that, thanks again!
