That will be great, Barry. You could do it like a play and have each of you say "John ready by Barry" and so forth.BarryHaworth wrote: ↑May 14th, 2021, 5:05 amExcellent.

* The bit rate is variable bit rate, and it should be constant 128kps
* The opening silence should be about 1 second, it is about 3.5 seconds
* The ending silence should be about 5 seconds it ias about 2 seconds.
You need to make a couple corrections at the end of the recording.
* The last sentence "But no one heard him." is not in the recording nor is the Ending Announcement.
* There are several places with light taps or bumps example at 1:00, like maybe you have your hands on the mic. Some of them are durring silence others during your dialog. I don't think you need to try and fix it in this recording, but you should be aware of it in future recordings.
Otherwise a good first recording. You reading pace and consistency are good.
There are links to help with recording issues in the opening post of this collection
