Do I have a lisp? I feel like I have a lisp.

I'll have you guys know I spend only 70% of my time flinging lolis at balls.

Which one of you needs a power supply for a game cube? I can give you one. Hell, I can give you a gamecube.

Removed 11 minutes of intermittent silence & pops, lowered file size by 20MB:

Episode Zero

Listened to twenty minutes,

Immediate Advisement To Be Advised Immediately:

- Avoid 'pops' by speaking at an angle of the microphone, never directly towards.
- Keep musical interludes down to thirty seconds, maximum.
- Add ID3 tags.

- Kayin & Max's audio sounds fine.
- Ryg needs to move a bit further away from the mic.
- Dohl's audio fades in & out. Staying aimed at the mic could help.
- Brentai's mic could use a boost, or replacement / upgrade.

THIS IS A REPLACEMENT/UPGRADE

I'd have airpopped your head off if I turned the boost on, anyway.

I, of all things, was also on a laptop built in mic with little ear buds as headphones. Some mics just suck. :(

I adjusted my volume a few times and was told it was fine, my voice dominating all others when I chimed in was the first thing I noticed, too.

MadMAxJr · « **Reply #69 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:05:34 PM »

Yeah, I was using headphones and a desk-mic to avoid feedback.

Finished listening. The musical interludes are abrupt, too numerous, and basically unneeded. What Are You Playing and Vidja News could shape up to be ten+ minute prerequisite segments for future casts. The podcast became worthwhile once Max began the Q&A session with Kayin. A++, would listen again to that format with other artists and developers.

Which makes for a nice opportunity for all of you to post what recording devices & software you're using.

Worth a shot.

I adjusted my volume

Not concerning volume, but avoiding the blowouts & exhales.

MadMAxJr · « **Reply #71 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:08:06 PM »

Downloading the Arc edit.. And yes, again, music interludes should be like 10-15 seconds, and not in the middle of a given topic (Castlevania in the middle of IWBTG)

MadMAxJr · « **Reply #72 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:18:11 PM »

So when are we doing another one? Two weeks?

Beat Bandit · « **Reply #73 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:22:57 PM »

Shhh, don't talk about it here or me and Ohakubi will show up again.

Are there gonna be set topics for these or are they just rambling?

Is there gonna be a page somewhere that has them all for download with description blurbs?

MadMAxJr · « **Reply #76 on:** January 11, 2009, 06:37:31 PM »

Good questions. I don't think we know yet.

Listened to the original show, as well as a part of Arc's edit.

Enjoyable show, though I'll echo my agreement for the interlude music-cutting and ID3 tags. I definitely like the silence being cut out in Arc's edit, as it makes the show feel a bit less awkward and a bit more snappy. However, I'd advise against the implementation of a variable bitrate like what Arc appears to have done with his edit, since it drives my older version of WinAmp a bit wonky in estimating the mp3 length and seems a bit unnecessary in general. I'd just use 64kbps instead of 96kbps -- it should still sound fine, and you'd save about 17MB on this podcast even without any silence-cutting.

Also, re: a page somewhere. Since Dohl asked me for webspace to host these podcasts, a page could certainly be designed to offer everything outside of direct forum links. Just depends on whether anyone has the initiative to throw something together, I guess.

See, THIS is what I needed for Jerk Radio. FEEDBACK.

...Maybe if I had a desk.
