1/13/2023 0 Comments Download italk sync for macI wouldn’t plan to use this for general out-and-about recording for podcasts (for that, I’ll stick with my Microtrack 24/96), although for casual short recordings such as the one I did at Tesco, it’s pretty good. Impressive audio quality, don’t you think? After converting the native iTalk AIFF recording to WAV, the only editing I’ve done to is run that file through The Levelator and then output that file to MP3. You can listen to or download the MP3 here (0.7Mb, 1:40). The demeanour of most surrounding me in the queue for the checkout didn’t seem conducive to some vox pop-style interviews, so I settled for a quick commentary. Good idea, I thought, especially as I had the iPhone with me on which I had installed Griffin iTalk, recommended by CC Chapman, a friend and great podcaster. So we joined a queue, which took 25 minutes before we reached the actual checkout operator (a stalwart young lady with good people skills and a terrific sense of humour).Īll was not wasted in the queue, though – to while away the time, I started twittering with my online buddies :)Īs I was keeping up a flow of Twitter reporting from the Tesco front line, a request came from Podnosh:Ĭan you perhaps make a podcast whilst you’re waiting to pay? Some kind of law of averages, I suppose: the more people queuing for the checkout, the less checkouts there are that are open. ![]() This supermarket has 35 checkouts, yet I could see only 10 actually open when we got to the checkout line. Imagine: a packed supermarket, not that many visible store staff around other than the shelf stackers with their enormous cages blocking some aisles, and a general air of chaos. It seemed as if the whole of Berkshire was in the store. Car park almost full and with one large remote area without lighting. So into Tesco Reading we go last night, and what a sorry experience it was. We thought it made good sense instead of doing that today when undoubtedly stores everywhere will surely be packed with last-minute Christmas shoppers. It seemed a good idea – visit our nearest 24-hour Tesco store at about 10pm so as to pick up some essentials.
