Today was a very hot day, so we decided to head out to the woods with a packed lunch. Despite the inevitable traffic jams around Balloch it was a lovely drive in an air conditioned car up to Ardgartan. We arrived shortly after 1pm and had an hour’s walk through the woods along Croe Water.

Today’s Daily Create asks us to make a motivational poster based on one of Thoreau’s quotes, so here’s mine above. It did, indeed, make me well going out there today. Happy Birthday, Henry.

Glen Douglas 8-8-18 walkcast⤴

It has taken me a while to get this one together. I am still experimenting with recording on the hoof. This time I decided to record a series of short clips in Voice Memos. the intention was to string them together quickly with Ferrite. I found that a bit footery on the phone and ran into the three track for free limit.

Returned to the problem on the iPad and Hokusai. Only took a few minutes. Both ferrite and Hokusai are made by the same developer! I think I might read Difference: Between Hokusai Audio Editor and Ferrite Recording Studio — Wooji Juice I need to get a bit more practice with these apps.

Another experimental microcast. I recorded this on a walk last week using the iPhone audio memos app. Just kept a memo open and recorded fragments on the go. Unfortunately at some point I hit done and when I added more, without looking, I recorded over the start.

On editing in ferrite the app crashed everytime. So I switched to Hokusai 2 cut the start pasted it to the end and then levelled in Auphonic. Finally back in Ferrite I added the intro (recorded in Ferrite and run through Auphonic).

This if far too complicated. I also need a dead cat from the phone to cut down on wind noise.
