At last I have found a little time to have a go at some of this editing. I've only done one so far. Hopefully I'll get a chunk of them done of XMas.
Anyway, the first is available at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15092923/feathercast/F_01_Grisel_ApacheStanbol.mp3 It is a topped and tailed version of http://feathercast.apache.org/feathercast_podcasts/ApacheConNA2011/Friday/F/111111_001.MP3 I'll do more and notify you privately after this (I just wanted to bring this message to the top of peoples inbox as a reminder if others are also able to help, and to give you a chance to refine your instructions if I didn't do it quite right) Ross On 28 November 2011 17:24, Rich Bowen <rbo...@rcbowen.com> wrote: > Request for help: Audio editing.
