Oktoberfest

The only things I enjoyed the only time we went to Oktoberfest were the yummy food and the Lebkuchen hearts we bought for one another.

Yesterday was the beginning of this beer festival. I thought, just for the heck of it, I’d record the cannon going off as it can be clearly heard from where we live. This recording was made on my Victor Reader Stream 3, so it’s in mono and probably not all that good in quality. I had an interesting problem when I grabbed it from the SD card. When I opened it in Studio Recorder to edit it, Studio Recorder said it wasn’t an accepted file format. It’s in wave, so I figured it could be handled. Well, I imported it into Audacity and then exported it as wave again so I could do the editing in Studio Recorder. That worked, so press tab if you want to hear the official kick-off of Oktoberfest 2024.
