Gregg Shorthand Simplified Recordings

All Simplified Manuals teach the same material each chapter. The only difference is the practice material and some of the explanation.

The little triangle after the file name means the file doesn't exist yet.

(:cell:) Summary

Files up to and including Assignment 6 are at 20, 30 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 wpm. Assignments 7 through 12 are at 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 wpm. The higher speeds are useful for review after your speed is high.

If any of the files are worse than average quality (for this project's value of average), let me know. I just learned that saving intermediate steps as mp3 is bad, but don't know how often I did it. (Assignments 11 and 12 are the only ones I suspect.)

The files are numbered based on Shorthand Manual Simplified Functional 2nd Edition (because I have the key to that one). If you can cross-reference other books, let me know! The Table of Contents? from the manuals shows which theory is taught in each chapter. It's the same order, but some of the explanations might be different.

In general, get to 40wpm as fast as possible, then progress steadily so you reach 80wpm by the end of the theory. The sooner you go fast, the less time it takes to write out each lesson, although early lessons are hard to write fast since they don't use as many brief forms.

(:title Shorthand:)

Shorthand is a hobby of mine. Unfortunately, dictating at the slow speeds I need is not a hobby of anyone I know. It's probably not the hobby of any of your friends, either.

My current method is to record it around 60wpm, then use Audacity's Change Tempo feature to change the speed and force it to different lengths.

In the spirit of passing it on, and as thanks for the help I've gotten online over the years, here are the files I've created for myself.

Several are missing for various reasons. Let me know if you want more passages or different speeds. I'm willing to do passages from other texts, although if there are a lot I'd appreciate it if you did the initial recording.

Word count is what the text says, unless otherwise specified. Yes, different texts use different systems. For more information on the different methods, and how to mark text, see here: http://www.steno-solutions.com/Articles.htm

The files are standard ZIP files, one per passage. They expand to mp3s. The triangle symbol means the file hasn't been uploaded yet. ZIP sizes are between 5 and 15MB. Yes, large. I'll experiment with smaller for the next batch, but don't hold much hope. Podcasts are usually 1MB per minute of voice.

Version: Gregg Simplified

All four Simplified manuals present the same theory in the same order. See Table of Contents. The only difference is the plates. Even most of them are the same.

The files are numbered based on Shorthand Manual Simplified Functional 2nd Edition. If you can cross-reference other books, let me know!

Files up to and including Assignment 6 are at 20, 30 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 wpm. Assignments 7 through 12 are at 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 wpm. Advice on speed-building is here: to come?

If any of the files are worse than average (for this project's value of average), let me know. I just learned that saving intermediate steps as mp3 is bad.
