Hello George:

There are a few notes on section 6. My times are approximate:

1:08 I hear "I know that. It is..." instead of "I know that it is." The meaning is opposite
5:28 I hear "Chancellor and the Exchequer" instead of "Chancellor of the Exchequer."
6:52 I hear "Prussian rule is our way" instead of "Prussian rule is in our way." Opposite meaning
7:33 The New Age, not "the age new"

Thank you! Your conviction comes through in your voice.

Hi Cormax: The spot PL shows the changes, thanks, but the timing is off. Did you rerecord the whole thing? If so, I have to relisten to the whole thing to be sure other slips haven't come up.

Czandra

yes, I re-recorded, sorry about that, I did not know how to record just those parts yet, I will look into that for the next one.

If you go to a blank audacity file, you can drag the mp3 file to it, and the file will convert back to audacity (I always save my audacity files until PLokay to avoid this step). Then you have to expand it (+) to a wave pattern you can work with. Push record, which will take you to the end of your recording, where you can record new bits. Then you cut the bits from there and paste them into the wave pattern where they belong (sorry my times are approximate so you have to listen to a few seconds to identify the spot).

After a while you get to read the wave patterns as if they were a script! You can see the "s's" and labials like b and p, or t and d, and use those to find the spot to paste.

I will relisten to your section.

Thank you, Cormax. As often happens if you rerecord, the new recording has new and different PL notes, sad to say. I did the same thing once, when I was exactly at your experience level. It's normal. Don't give up! This gives you an opportunity to attempt correcting as indicated above!

at 5:31 there's a sentence missing. "Stop this prattle"

7:20 I hear statement instead of statesman
7:30 I didn't correct this before, but since you're there, "rave" is pronounced as "pave, save". Rav is a Toyota.

In my directions about cutting and pasting, I omitted to say that, to cut, you do it as for text: highlight the wave pattern you wish to paste elsewhere, use the cut tool in audacity or short-cut: Control x, then paste using control v. If it doesn't work, you can use the undo tab on audacity, or start again with the mp3 to audacity. It takes time to learn how, but once you've got it, you can record at ease, knowing you can always cut out pauses, stumbles, or paste in corrections.

Have fun!

A few years ago, LV's own Phil Chenevert made a nice video tutorial about editing in Audacity. It uses an older version, but the principles are still the same:
