Welcome to the Poetry Collection! Thank you so much for your lovely contribution, which is PL OK! Just a headsup on the filename which includes an extra _mp3. I will fix - no problem - I'm just mentioning it here for future filenaming reference

Dear Rapunzelina,

Here are my recordings for January. I changed computers recently, and I think that the export settings are equivalent to the ones I have been using, but I am not 100% sure, so let me know if there is anything that's not quite right.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, Ike! Congratulations on your new computer! Was it a new year's resolution to change computers? Or perhaps a Christmas gift!

The tech specs are the wrong ones. You should be able to fix that by re-exporting the recordings and setting the options in the export window.
Choose "Constant" for Bit Rate Mode, and "128kbps" for Quality.

It may look something like this:




Don't worry if you don't get to this by tomorrow's time of cataloguing; I can fix those for you if so. Then you can change the settings for your next recordings!
If you do manage to get to these, also leave 5 seconds of silence in "A Lad That is Gone" - loved the accent!!

[Ikedsherr]

Thanks. Sort of a resolution, I just had to change it because the old one's on the way out. And thanks for the institutions, I have applied the changes to the tech specs.

Here they are, good as new!
