And there are apps for Ipads and phones that allow direct one-touch posts to one's home page.  We still maintain a YouTube page but I recently set up an account (free) with Soundcloud for audio files.  There would be several advantages for techs sharing and comparing piano samples with one another- one of which is the format.  When one is logged in on  their main page, all of the audio files are listed and are easier to switch from one to another for comparison.  Each of us could use a separate account or, what if, someone could set up just one account that we could all access to submit entries?  Maybe this isn't practical, but if it worked, then everyone's clips could be easily compared on one page.   And it may be possible to post clips on other's pages too - which means that the sharing system would still work if each person created their own account.  FWIW.  www.soundcloud.com<div><br><div><div><font color="#330033"><font face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" color="#330000" style="font-style: italic; ">Michael Spreeman </font><br></font></div><div><font color="#330033"><font face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" color="#330000" style="font-style: italic; ">www.RavenscroftPianos.com</font></font></div><div><font color="#330033"><font face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" color="#330000" style="font-style: italic; "><br></font></font></div><br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sat, 2 Jun 2012 05:54:37 -0700<br>From: bases-loaded76@sbcglobal.net<br>To: pianotech@ptg.org<br>Subject: Re: [pianotech] mp3 recordings<br><br><style></style><div style="font-family:times new roman,new york,times,serif;font-size:12pt"><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt">It's actually quite simple to synch video with audio with even the most basic video editing software.  Import the video to the program, import the separate high-quality audio to it, line up the good audio track with the wimpy audio track from the video camera aurally (simple to do), then mute the audio track from the video camera.  Probably takes 10 minutes, tops.<br><br>Mark Potter<br><br><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight:bold">From:</span></b> Mark Dierauf <pianotech@nhpianos.com><br><b><span style="font-weight:bold"></span></b></font><br> Dale -<br> <snip>I think your format of using still photos with good quality recordings is the way to go on YouTube. <snip> I know that it's possible to get HQ audio synced with video, but for guys like us trying to do it ourselves it's probably much less expensive to record the audio separately and add still photos.<br> <br> - Mark<br> <br> On 6/1/2012 1:24 AM, erwinspiano wrote: <blockquote> Hi Joe. <div>We posted a test recording of a Yamaha C-7 with Ronsen Weickert Felt hammers and Arledge bass on you tube.
