There are 4 versions of this talk on the R4A server. The numbering is wonky...don't ask:
(OK, I'll tell you, but it will have to be our little secret...Shhhh. I forgot to lower the bitrate on the "individual use" versions. and when I tried to upload the corrected files, the system renumbered the versions. I made this same error on the subsequent two projects I uploaded to R4A, but I'm not going to try to fix this until I figure out how to not end up with renumbered versions.
Remember...don't tell anyone!)
Version 1: The full talk (minus the audience questions) optimized for RADIO PLAY (-24 LUFS Mp3).
Version 3: A 58 minute RADIO READY edit (-24 LUFS Mp3). Includes my intro and outro.
Version 4: The full talk (minus the audience questions) optimized for INDIVIDUAL USE (-19 LUFS Mp3). Identical content to Version 1, but a louder file encoded at a lower bitrate so it uses less storage space on your device.
Version 5: A 58 minute edit of the talk optimized for INDIVIDUAL USE (-19 LUFS Mp3). Identical content to Version 2, but a louder file encoded at a lower bitrate so it uses less storage space on your device.
