Two feedback posts in two days… I promise this won’t become a habit
Kenichi’s audio for 治る is wayyy too loud and should probably be normalized down to the level of all the other audio clips (compare with e.g. 治す). I’ve sort of come to fear this word appearing in my reviews, since I know it will always be accompanied by an earth-shattering N A O R U. It would be nice if I didn’t have to fear for the safety of all the glass objects in my room when doing WK reviews. Thanks!
Ah, getting flashbacks here to the original recording they had for the 鰐蟹 vocab item. The one with Kouichi’s voice. Car alarms would go off three blocks away.
I don’t doubt that. Flaming Durtles can also randomise the audio clips. But if the answer is “use a third-party software”, then this can be applied to the problem of audio clip volume as well.
Yeah, unfortunately our process for updating audio is not the most straight-forward at the moment (we’re looking at changing it) so until now we have usually waited until we have enough audio edits to be made to make them all in one batch. Our next batch of audio edits should be uploaded in the next few weeks though so 治る should be done by then and I’ll make sure 改める gets looked at also.
Thanks for letting us know, and thanks for your patience too
