    Recording Sounds

    Hi, i need to record sounds which need to be played consecutively so they all sound as if they are one sentence to the user. All i have is a microphone and a basic wav editing package. Any advice on how to do this? Like should i leave a slight silence at the beginning and end of each .wav file? Tried most things but they all sound like a different file is being played! Using sndPlaySound at the moment.
    Thanks in advance.

    The way that I would do it ( all theory here ) is to use some form of timing inside of the program ( not a timing gap in the wave file ).

    By doing this you can increase and decrease that gap untill it sounds like a proper sentance.

    If it sounds like a different wave file is being played for each word, then try overlaping them a bit ( this should get rid of, or use more constructively the time taken to load the wav file )

    Good luck with your coding

    Right, thanks for the reply. Didn't bout putting a time delay within the program. Thanks.
