Audio Drama
I'll write something up and record myself reading it tonight.
I'll try something too....
If you write something, post it too. If you're first, I'll just read yours.
Unless you were talking about reading mine.

Actually, I was going to simply read a bit of a roleplay. I messed around with reading part of the intro to Apparitions: Faces of the Dead.
I kept getting this background buzzing noise when I played the recorder and heard my voice.
Not sure what is causing it. I'm going to try to get a better mic. The one I am using is part of a headset but with only the mic cord plugged in. The other audio out is being used by my comp speakers.
There is nothing on in the background, no lights, no tv, no a/c... I wondered if it was a buzzing from the monitor and tried recording my voice with the monitor off just to see... but no cigar.
The headset mic thing is a few years old.. bought it cheap back when I was experimenting with mixing audio conversing and online gaming.

I figured that since everyone else will probably be using a generic microphone, that I should too so as to get a more consistent sound. But, alas, my generic mic is borked. I'll grab a good one tomorrow.
For recording, we're going to have to find something better than the Windows Recorder, which IIRC, has a limit of sixty consecutive seconds recorded. I use Cakewalk Sonar 3, but that's a bit on the pricey side (six hundred USD). I'll see if I can find anything better.
Once you do get the mic going, remember not to speak directly into it. Have it arranged so it's a few inches above or below your mouth, so your 'P's and 'T's and such don't distort the audio.

Here's the text we should all read. It's got a good bit of both narritive and vocals, so we should get a broad view of everyone's capabilities.

... I have a feeling I'm going to be mis-pronouncing a lot of this.
Same here. I tried reading the intro to Apparations, and I was missing words, missreading, the works.
Illiterates.
