I don't know anything about doing work with audio or video, but all of these instructions were so clear and exact, I figured 'what the heck' I'll give it a go. It seemed to work flawlessly the first try, knowing to use the txt file in the newest Audacity version (I used Audacity 3.1.0 on a Mac.) Thank you for making this option do-able by everyone. :D 8-)

INCREDIBLE!

Well, I downloaded and installed 'Audacity' a few years ago and never knew what to do with it - no skills.
And now the LIB Japanese SHM CD 4 comes up, and LR's tutorial for tweaking it.
I swear, I needed ONE attempt following LR's tutorial, and got best results!
Guys - you only need a little more time and patience. :shock:

Thankyou Reith.

Yes I realise the instructions above look horribly complicated but they are pretty straightforward so if you just follow each step then you shouldn't have any problems. And if you do, just ask - this is the Tech Support board after all!
