We are currently not redoing N4 and N5 until we finish all the newer content. As for the new audio not playing, I am not sure what the problem is there
Hey guys, just giving you a heads up that we are still busy recording (currently have about 50 grammar points that I am going through), but because the naming takes a buttload of time there has been a short delay due to me getting home from work most days at midnight and just not having the energy to name the files… lazy on my part but I am doing bits and pieces where I can!
In saying that, if anyone wants to volunteer to name files, be my guest. I use a batch naming program to name the albums/ track numbers etc, naming the individual sentence text is the only thing that takes time.

@s1212z and @Kappa420, @hali_g was able to figure out why some of the audio was not working so that I could implement a fix. Let me know if you still come across some review questions that do not have audio, even though they have audio associated with them in Example Sentences. Cheers!

Sorry for the delay in the audio guys. I have cut back my schedule for August (thanks to a government stimulus package that will allow me to work a bit less for a while). So my partner and I are aiming to complete everything then. I will have 4 days off per week to work on it. Woo!

Hi Asher, I want to thank you and your partner very much for the audio! Without it I have doubts that I would have subscribed to BunPro.
Whenever I start a new grammar point I read each example sentence out loud, quickly check the English translation, then turn it off to listen to the audio and repeat it back following the example. During reviews, after I type in the grammar point I play back the sentences while reading along. Actually hearing the spoken language is excellent for listening practice and reinforcing the grammar points.
努力してくれてありがとうございます！

I am so happy that the audio is being updated. I can’t wait until the N4/N5 audio is updated. The other audio was so much harder to understand.

Cant wait for n5 and n4 updated voice, because as a beginner I feel like current recordings are waaaaay too fast, it even beats anime level of fast speaking. Cant focus on grammat point when im even struggling to hear each individual words. When i checked some grammar point from N3 it’s 10 times better.

The first batch of N2 audio will be made available on Bunpro later tonight. However, you can download it now from Google Drive.
Edit: The N2 audio files are now also available on Bunpro.

@Asher and Haruna, once again : Thank you so much for doing these! Can’t believe the two of you have already finished the entirety of N3!

Happy to help! I use them myself with the ambience app playing on my phone at the same time. Most phones can do it simultaneously. It adds an extra layer of difficulty depending on what kind of ambience you choose. Cafe, heavy rain, thunder, etc etc.

@Asher I literally shouted with joy when my reviews started playing the new audio this morning. Thank you so much! Using an ambiance app is a great idea.

I didn’t see a new update notification but I wanted @Asher and Haruna to know it has not gone un-noticed. Thank you for the new audio! It really makes such a difference. Often when I’m having trouble understanding a new grammar point as soon as I hear the audio it clicks. Really helps cement everything in my brain.

Happy to help mate. All of N2 is finished now! We are planning on going back and doing N4 before N1, seeing as though there are lots more users on that level currently.

As totally unbiased person that did not accidentally happen to be in the middle of N4, I can reassure you this is the best, and the most logical, course of actions.

@Asher and @Aecharjay I apologize for the late announcement. Some of the audio files were assigned to the incorrect sentences and needed to be fixed.
@Asher and Haruna have recorded, edited, and uploaded nearly 1000 new N2 sentences from かねる to たった(の). As @Asher said, this means that all of N2 now has audio files.
@Asher has also made these audio recordings available for download from Google Drive.
Thanks again to Asher and Haruna for all of their hard work!
