Is anyone having issues with the new upload system?

When it converts my file it seems to distort it, both when I listen back and download the file. the original file is perfect my end. I'm uplaoding 44100 16 bit 128kbs mp3 files.

Editorial Comment Hello everyone,

Thank you all for your input and feedback, as we develop our service all feedback is gratefully received.

We have been collating and listening to all feedback surrounding our new Demo Read feature and we are pleased to say that our alternative upload option is now up and running. 

You will still be able to use the quick record feature via Demo Read. However, with this update, you will now be able to upload high-quality pre-recorded files (as long as they stay under 200mb) without file compression causing a difference in quality, should you choose to upload your own.

Simply use the "select a file" button located underneath the Demo Read box to use this option.

If you have any further questions over how to best optimise your applications please do contact emails@mandy.com

All the Best

Agreed, and I have never sent a stereo file in my 16 years over being a Voice over.

Just dipped into this topic and read all the posts.
I’ve had a year away from Mandy but rejoined recently - and would echo the negative experience many of you have found with uploads and sound quality. My files have a tinny distorted quality.
I am reassured at least that the problem is not exclusively mine - although that is scant consolation!
If files need to be uploaded using certain parameters why on earth isn’t this clearly highlighted on the job application page.

My return to this site has definitely not been positive thus far...
