		<description>[quote comment=&quot;37307&quot;]This was exceptionally creepy -[/quote]

I thought it was a pretty cool story, and I only wish that I had (as blob points out) the audio equipment to do it justice.</description>

		<description>You bring up two very good points, blob. 

1. This is what I love about recording at Erie Vista Studios; Chris Miller has the mixer tweaked nicely to bring out the bass (and he&#039;s got the nice microphones, too). Unfortunately, all I&#039;ve got at my disposal is a crappy headset mic and none of the Audacity-fu to adjust the levels in post.

2. I definitely had some problems with pacing in this story. Some of that is due to my having to read parts of it &lt;em&gt;fifty bajillion&lt;/em&gt; times because I couldn&#039;t get my tongue to work properly around some of the phrasing, but part of it is me being rushed to finish the recording. The latter is entirely my fault, because I had the manuscript for well over a week before I sat down to record it.

Thanks for the feedback. I do appreciate it and I&#039;m glad you enjoyed the story.</description>

		<description>This was ninety-eight percent awesome, but may I offer a couple of critiques?

1) Beg/borrow/steal/purchase a better microphone or change your filters, &#039;cause you lost all the bass from your voice and that&#039;s part of what makes your voice awesome and would have been very useful in this particular reading.

2) (And I very much am guilty of this too) Pacing; it felt like you were rushing parts of the story that needed a little bit of time to linger in the mind of the listener.  It&#039;s too far from my having heard it now to recall specific places, but that left an impression.

Also, Volcanicast bonus points for &quot;vehemence&quot;, even if you didn&#039;t write it.</description>
