Good to know.

In the past, I've always normalized my eBird audio. And plan to continue.

"The Macaulay Library also now automatically normalizes audio on new uploads for greater consistency.

Your original sound files remain unchanged—only the online playback might sound different."

Recording audio to an iPhone via a Tascam Portacapture X8

It is possible to use the Tascam Portacapture X8 as an ADC, input converter, and mixing board for an iPhone, but there’s a few things you’ll need to know.

Thankfully, any USB-C or USB-C-to-Lightning cable will do

You just connect one end of the USB-C cable to the Portacapture X8 (to its built-in USB port) and the other to your iPhone (USB-C or Lightning work, as suits your particular model of […]

Spent Monday of this week doing my first solo recording gig. It was for a ~20 piece big band in small auditorium, and I was really happy with how everything came out.

The really nice part was not having to worry about bleed on the microphones cause the takes weren't going to get comped together.

I mean, I wasn't going to worry about it anyway cause it was a ~20 piece big band playing on stage in a small auditorium, and you may as well worry about what it's going to sound like if a meteor hits nearby slightly out of time, but it was nice to have an extra reason not to worry.

Edit 2: Es wird wohl audacity werden, danke für die Tips. 🙂

Ich hätte Lust, mich aktiv bei LibriVox einzubringen (Bücher, die Gemeingut/Public Domain geworden sind, auf Datei lesen).

Problem: Ich bräuchte einen digitalen Audio-Recorder, und zwar auf dem Linux-PC. Über Smartphone möchte ich das nicht machen.

Meine Ansprüche: Mit GUI, einfach zu bedienen, keine Spielereien oder Effekte, die das Menü aufblasen und die Bedienung verkomplizieren. Empfehlungen?

Edit: Überflüssiges/falsches Wort gelöscht.

You ever drink alone on a Friday night and record yourself singing & playing guitar poorly in your bathroom?

I spent my first 65 years avoiding getting drunk, only once sub-coming at a Russian wedding reception which had vodka and champagne on the table while people danced but didn't serve food until Midnight.

I then tasted way too many beers at Tioga-Sequoia brewery (very tasty) and found I could not keep from feeling I would fall down. Anyway, the spouse drove us back from Fresno and I got the bright idea, purely for author-research purposes, to make a voice recording of my thoughts about the experience of being drunk. Sadly, the spouse didn't have their way with me.I've only listened to parts of the recording, because, well, too embarrassing—so I know why nobody's way was had.

J'ai pas le temps d'écouter mais YT m'a suggéré cette discussion entre les deux auteurs respectifs de deux importants programmes DAW : Reaper et Ardour!

Our #RemembranceDay events usually feature a choir singing the Flanders Fields poem. Sometimes 'Danny Boy' as well.

Here's an audio recording I captured live a good 20yrs ago now. It's at the same location shared above, on a cool September evening. Even with a bit of wind noise, it gives me the chills to listen to it still.
