Hey, all—
Will your computer play the .wav file I’m uploading? One way or the other (yea or nay), are you on a Mac or a PC platform? I wanna see if I can record lectures on iPad, upload them to my online course’s website, and have them be usable for all the classmates regardless of the platform they’re using.
Click here to run the audio file…
And then please let me know in a comment what happened. There’s a brief silence at the beginning while I tried to tell whether it was running after I turned it on.
It looks like the app will record for as long as an hour & a half. The audio recordings that Blackboard gagged on were about 15 minutes long.
An only marginally comprehensible technologese entry in Wikipedia on .wav files says an uncompressed .wav file is quite large, so this may be impractical for lectures unless I can figure out how to compress them and how students can uncompress them. Anybody got any insight into these processes, if they exist at all?
Using Chrome on a Mac and it wouldn’t play for me.
Driving down the highway (I’m the passenger) and tried it on my iPad. No go. When I get home I will try it with my Mac Pro.
Didn’t work, using chrome on a PC.
I could hear it. Windows XP and Firefox
iIcould hear you perfectly I’m not sue on what Windows PC ? itunes firefox. I didn’t have to do anything particular, just click where you said click.
Dada on my new iPhone that I don’t know how to use very well.
Err – fat fingers! Nada!!!
Audio was crystal clear on my MacBook Pro. (Safari) Doesn’t work on the iPad.
came through fine my PC. You have a nice voice.
I use a PC with Firefox. You sound exactly like I imagined you would! Ha. (Yes, it played fine. Next time, let Cassie say a few words though.)
It works on my Macbook, running OSX 10.4.11.
Have you considered Audacity? It’s a freeware MP3 creation program. You just hit record and talk. (you can do editing as well, if you want) MP3s are already compressed audio. It’s available for Mac and PC, although not for Ipad.
Firefox and Windows XP was fine: went straight to Media Player.
I was able to hear it on my factory standard MacBook. You have a lovely voice!
“Vintage” PC with Windows XP Home Edition
Heard loud and clear
Worked fine on my MacBook.
I want to hear! Mac–nothing
You came through loud and clear on my PC (Windows Media Player).
On an iMac with Safari. Works fine. And I agree with Audry, you have a wonderful voice.
Worked on my Windows Vista/IE 8 platform. Sounded a little mushy around the “t” and “th” sounds.
PC Windows 7 works fine, but Chrome doesn’t work.
Same as the others: Chrome doesn’t work, and Firefox works fine. Windows XP.
