Hi and thanks for reading these instructions.
Please plug in a decent pair of headphones or use external speakers that are hooked up to your computer to listen to these recordings. Speakers or headphones that have their own volume adjustment are the best.

The recordings themselves were made at a relatively low volume, so you will probably need to turn the volume up higher than it is currently in order to hear the recordings as they're intended. Here are several volume adjustments you can make on your computer, listed from best (1) to worst (3):
- Headphone or external speaker volume knob: This is the volume you should adjust first. If the music starts distorting, try turning down the volume on your music player instead of the headphone/speaker volume.
- Internal computer volume: You shouldn't touch this unless you don't have external speakers/headphones. If that's the case, turn this up first, and if the music starts distorting, turn down the music player volume as with #1.
- Music-playing software volume: Don't turn the volume up on your Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, Realplayer, Winamp, or other software unless you can do so without the music distorting. This is the worst method of adjusting volume. If the music does distort, turn this down first.
I recommend that you download Quicktime Player for Mac or Windows if you don't have it, and especially if you don't have external speakers.
