Absolutely. Sorry it was late but every time I tried to work on editing the boys wouldn't allow it. I don't know where they learned their impatience from? :dontknow

This was my second time conducting interviews. My recording equipment changed slightly and I learned so new things, as well as encountered some new problems. I did my best to get the volumes consistent however it was a hurdle. That will be the last time I try using a single microphone for interviews. Some of the audio had to be amplified quite a bit some it added some noise that I tried to work out.

As always I really appreciate feedback. :hug:

Oh yeah, and don't even get me started on the stupid sample rate crap. I had no idea when I tried posting it last night that I had Audacity set on the wrong sample rate. :arggg:

Bobby,
Nice job with the interview. It was awesome to get a spectrum of folks in the hobby: sponsored pilots, couples, kids, 2-year olds...LOLs...You're the best rush chairman ever...LOLs...But what happened to the second segment?

More frustration setting in. Listened to the track on the computer and it seemed fine through the headphones. This morning I played it through my car speakers using Podkicker (Android) and some of the tracks are only playing from the right side speakers. Jumped into Audacity here at work at tried to combine the tracks prior to exporting and it cancels out half the audio. WTH? :arggg:

I really like your person-on-the-street interview style, Bobby. This hobby is about more than pro pilots and it was refreshing to hear from spectators and everyday flyers.

Kudos for interviewing Matt. He usually visits me a couple of times in the course of a fun fly and once you get past the awkwardness, he's not a bad guy to converse with. I was sad to hear that Scott is out of the canopy painting business. I must have missed that memo.

Bobby, it's not totally on the right side, there's a bit of audio on the left. Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I didn't really notice it. On one interview it was quieter than the rest but still good to listen to this morning.
