Back Fence Ramblings
Jun. 14th, 2009 12:03 am- 14:31 Mrrrrgh. Am being productive, really. Woo. #
- 14:46 @AlasdairStuart Hey, some of my best prep involves sitting around playing silly online flash games. For me, that's like meditating. =D #
- 14:46 @AlasdairStuart And I'd much prefer that to sitting around snipping breathy noises out of Ch19. But I've put that off too long. #
- 14:47 Oh yeah; with the 'mono-file only' issue with Ch1 sorted, I've sent it off to @Podiobooks again. Fingers crossed I got it right this time. #
- 15:08 @Asmenedas Lessened slightly. More of a 'I need to do something, it might as well be this' thing. #
- 16:03 Wow; nearly half done with the Ch19 edits. I think I must be doing something right... #
- 16:05 @CourtCat Not 'almost done'. A little under half. Still making better time than usual. #
- 16:09 Taking a break to listen to @jchutchins latest 'Hey Everybody'. It has been highly recommended by @dodgyhoodoo. *g* #
- 16:44 I have a Plan for the weekend. It is an AMBITIOUS plan, and it's a make-or-break for the whole HIPPIE thing. So stay tuned. #
- 17:40 I hate GIMP, I've decided. It's a horrible, faffy thing. But at least it's free and I can about work it. #
- 20:18 Whole thing still needs a LOT of fixing to be remotely okay for @Podiobooks. Print looks unviable. Need to re-record and re-think. #
- 22:26 I might have to re-record the entire HIPPIEcast. Start to finish. Eighteen chapters. OMG DON'T WANNA. #
- 22:26 ...Unless I'm very, very clever. Let's see if I'm very, very clever. #
- 22:27 Attempt 1: Crashed Audacity. Thankfully I'd saved the almost entirely completed work on Ch19. Take two! #
- 22:29 Attempt 2: Crashed Audacity. I think I know another way. I just have to see if I can make it work. *fumes, tries again* #
- 22:32 Attempt 3: Crashed Audacity. No, this is just NOT GOING TO WORK. Looks like I'm going to have to re-record the whole mess. Whee. #
- 22:33 @Asmenedas They need to be joint stereo for @Podiobooks. They were recorded mono. There's no option to swap formats. I R screwed. #
- 22:34 @Asmenedas Plus there are a couple of bits that the good bods over there want smoothed over before they'll accept. So ... yeah. Re-record. #
- 22:41 @Asmenedas It's not a matter of equipment; it's a matter of recording settings, so yes. Not that I could afford upgrades anyway. #
