A little help from my friends... (D-Backs Fancast)

*A Quick Update*

Hello guys!

Long time no see :) I just wanted to say sorry to everyone here for not being able to produce any fancasts recently. As some of you know I moved back home (and as a result five hours from most of my recording/editing equipment used for the fancast) and so finding time/a regular routine has been a work in process.

So at the moment I have little time to even watch a game, yet alone record a fancast and I don't want to be publishing them unless im 100% focussed and committed.

I'm hopeful that one day (this season!) I'll be able to get the show back on the air but for now all I can do is say sorry and thanks for the support and the patience.

With all that being said I think if you listened to most of the published podcasts so far and just changed a few names it would relate to our form recently ;)

Hope everyone is well and go D-Backs!

Dan

Hello guys!

For those who don't know I've been producing a weekly Diamondbacks podcast called D-Backs Fancast for the last three weeks now.

I'll have episode four out on Friday but If you haven't heard the 'cast so far please feel free to check it out either here or you can subscribe in I-Tunes

Thanks to everyone who has listened to the D-Backs fancast so far and to Jim for posting it here on the 'pit and moreso for being my star guest every week ;)

I'm looking at ways to try and make the podcast more interactive and involve as many fans as possible.

At the start of each show I give a quick recap on how the D-Backs have got on over the past seven days, which usually means a lot of my voice which can get a little bit dull.

'Charmer came up with the idea of having a guest 'recapper' every week who could put their own spin and take on the results.

So, if anybody has audio recording equipment, and by that I mean a computer mic! and basic editing software (by basic I mean anything that can get audio into MP3 or WAV format) and fancies giving it a go then I'd love to get you involved!

Similarly anybody who has any suggestions or thoughts about features they'd like to have included please email me at azfancast@googlemail.com or wimby86@gmail.com

Thanks again for all the support and go D-Backs!

Dan

Count me in!

But you already knew that. ;)

For anyone who wants to help but doesn’t have a mic – USB microphones are pretty cheap these days, and Audacity is one of many pieces of free recording software.

Minors?

I don’t know how long it is, but I can put together some stuff related to the minors, our prospect etc.

I’ll be writing a weekly minors recap here, so you can use as much of that as you want, or if you want something else, let me know.

You’ll have to record it yourself though, I’m not into that :)

Hey paqs

That would be really usefull if you could write a quick recap of how the minor league teams got on, I’m more then happy to voice it :)

I’m looking for just a couple of minutes summarising the results of each club and how they are getting on in their division. Also if anything amazing happens to a player like a complete game shutout, multiple home runs etc etc

I’ve done the script for this week now but if you could write one based on Friday-Thursday I would very much appreciate it!

Time for another drink then?

Ooh, are we allowed to do that?

That’d be a good idea…

If You'd Like

You could call me during a broadcast and have it on speakerphone. Unfortunately, I don’t have any recording equipment so that would be the only service that I could offer you.

I’m only twenty-years-old so I know all of that cool new hip slang the kids are using these days.

Wear your own fur.

Heh!

I’d love to do so but given the time difference, calling anyone during a game is pretty impossible right now (I record my phone segment with Jim from my University)

However I will need to find a long term solution as I’ll be leaving here in June so I’m perhaps looking to see if Skype can be recorded with good quality so watch this space and thanks for volunteering I appreciate it :)
