I posted my 1-Minute test the other day and was approved, and now I'm wanting to pick up some small parts here and there to get rolling. Could I claim section #7 (Chief Poker, General, Fix 1, Comfortable Camel)? I read the script and would love to try out some fun character voices for these guys. I don't know if it matters if I'm female? Haven't seen much commentary here on gender-swapping roles yet ;)
Hey, Penny! I'm not doing gender perfect casting for this project, so you may certainly claim section 07. Please note that files must be FLAC instead of MP3. Thanks!
Perfect, thank you! My new mic should be arriving this week, so I will jump on the recordings as soon as possible. (For those in the know, is it typical to post another 1-minute test when changing equipment, just to double check everything? It's become too much trouble to record in my friend's studio with my schedule, so I decided to invest in my own mic. Blue Yeti woo!)
Sounds good.

Congrats on your Yeti! I know you'll love it. :D

ETA: I missed your question. Yes, when you change equipment, it is best to post another test, just to make sure your technical specs, background noise, and volume are still OK. :)

PJ,
I would suggest that you do post another test when you change equipment, just to confirm that you've got the right mic selected in your recording softward and that the gain is properly set (you can adjust that both on the mic and in Audacity with the Yeti). We want to make sure you are getting the best possible out of your yeti.

Woggle Bug Chapter 1 PL Notes:

At 2:06, you mixed up the order of the words. You said:
"Now, if you will answer all my questions as I call your names, I'll get the necessary data and be off."
You should have said:
"Now, if you will all answer my questions as I call your names, I'll get the necessary data and be off."
Just edit and resubmit. Wonderful reading, by the way! :thumbs:
