今天开始朗读练习,利用两个软件。一个是神奇变速器(Amazing slow Downer),用于播放原声,分别为40%,60%,80%,100%,120%,140%,160%,180%,200%。一个是音频编辑器(Adobe Audition ),对每个速度下的朗读进行录音。但不定都存盘保留。变速朗读录音, 每个速度朗读两遍。还不够流畅。朗读了两个小时。要想达到五个小时,真是一种考验。第一天进行,坚持不到这么长时间。录音的好处,是强迫自己开口出声。否则读着读着就没有声音了。录音就会想着要读得漂亮,要求自己会严格些。Adobe Audition 也可以同时放声和录音的,但不能变速度。还是用神奇变速器较好,两个软同时用,也不难操作。
