Don't hesitate, choose your favourite part from the books and let us hear you.

So... you will laugh your ass off... but I trust you so here is the way a poor little Hungarian reads out from Gunslinger. (Don't hurt me too much, please.) :lol:

And it looks like you found what to do there Jerome, is that hosted somewhere else and linked here?

Randall Flagg
10-04-2007, 10:23 AM
It's hosted on FileFront, but I thought you mentioned earlier that sound files could be hosted here on dt.com.

Mike Beck

Arthur Heath
10-09-2007, 09:35 AM
I read it about 20 times aloud over two days and than did 5 takes all the way through. I used a sound editing program to cut it up, in about 2 minuet pieces and each section is about 9 megs each.

Matt
10-09-2007, 09:46 AM
I bet they are great. :rock:

Randall Flagg
10-09-2007, 10:38 AM
Skolpadda, Simply great. I just listened to them. Nice Cort rendition.
I wish I had a good sound editing program. I just have the POS one that comes with Windows. It only gives you 60 seconds unless you stop prior to time running out. It's tough to read and continually have to hit the stop button every 50 seconds, then start again.

Arthur Heath
10-09-2007, 10:54 AM
Thanks Randall. The editing software I used is called Audacity and is open source. You can download the free, full version here:

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Its user friendly and robust enough to do most tasks. At least ones around our hobbyist level.

Matt
10-09-2007, 10:56 AM
Yes! I had the same problem, will be downloading that at home.

Letti
10-09-2007, 11:52 AM

I did one and read SK's forward but I did it on my camera (facing out the window) and it was too big for youtube :(

Is it a combination of the phrase "skin flint" into one word?

Hmm, don't know - as skin flint means a stingy/miserly person I don't think so. But, it does sound likely.

People also say "I'm brassic!" because "brassic lint" is cockney rhyming slang for skint.

I know it means miserly, I was just thinking somehow over the years it morphed together and the morphed word was used in different ways than the original phrase. Just a thought.
