Oh thank you! I know how to do that.Kitty wrote: ↑March 18th, 2021, 6:33 amno on the contrary, I am very sorry that I didn't catch it earlier and gave you the guidance before you started recording of course you couldn't know.
! you definitely do NOT have to re-record the 30+ minutes entirely. This is way too much work and it can easily be avoided. What I suggest is the following:I’ll incorporate your guidance and do a few trial runs before re-recording.
> open your file in Audacity (if you use that program) and listen to your recording again, while following along with the text
> as soon as there is a direction at the beginning of a sentence, record the name of the character (in another audacity window) and simply paste it in front of your direction. Maybe enhance the volume so it sounds a bit similar to the rest of the text
> continuing onward you'll soon notice there will always be the same half dozen names that you need to insert, so don't close your new windows but you can always copy the same recording of your names and paste it at the exact spot where you need it. So you basically have to record only 6-10 names and recycle them when needed
In the long run this will not take much time. And you'll get perfect at editing, which is very important to learn right from the start. It saves a lot of time and re-recording is never encouraged here
hmmm I don't really know what you mean by that, so I couldn't help you there. The step-by-step I gave you above is the way I edit my files.Do you advise importing the file into software that allows me to highlight my spoken bits? Sounds prudent.
