LibriVox Forum

An MC is a meta-coordinator, the person who does the behind-the-scenes stuff to set up and finish off projects. A project will instruct you to upload files to a certain MC's folder in the uploader. But non-project files such as tests go elsewhere - like to the Tests folder. :) Just what Tricia said...

Hi Emma! You have a very pretty reading voice, good job! Just a few notes: Tech specs should be set to 128kbps Constant- currently they are 106kbps Variable. In Audacity, you can fix this by going to File>Export>Export as MP3 and under Format Options select Bit Rate Mode: Constant and Quality: 128kb...

Hi Martin,
Tech specs are all good, congrats! Your first official PL OK is here!


Thanks for uploading, please feel free to ask if you ever have any questions.

Thanks!

Elena (edunlop),
How would you like to be listed in the catalog page? We can also link to a personal website/blog.
The reason I need this info is because I cannot put you in the MW (therefore changing the forum to Readers Found until I get the info.
Thanks!

Hi Martin!
The sound itself sounds good. I am away from my usual gear, so I can't check the tech specs right now. If nobody else replies before me (but please, feel free to, anyone!) I will check the tech specs when I get home in a few hours.
Thanks!

:thumbs: and of course to our great BC !! Tom would be proud Thank you, Phil. It is a little tricky at first (a couple days ago a glitch in the MW made me think I deleted 6 sections! :shock: ) but you kind of get the hang of it after a bit...just kind of. Yes, thank you to all the readers- there is...

Matityahu, Chapter 17 is very well done. I just have a couple notes: At ~4:40, you said 'services' instead of 'service'. Not a huge deal, but it changes the meaning of the sentence a little. ~5:08-5:15, there is a rapid clicking noise in the background. ~7:17-7:23, same noise. ~8:02-8:05, same noise...

when I go to the Librivox Management Tool and try to login as a "BC," I am told I "don't have permissions for this area"-- isn't that how I manage the MW-- the place I manage my solo project and post recorded files? Hi plbeard, I click on the tiny link under the MW (BC Admin) and it just requires m...

Thank you Lomond for all your PLing.
I appreciate it!

Some notes on Chapter 9: Time: 01:30 Text has "Next the ghastly ticking of a death-watch" Reading has ghostly instead of ghastly. Not sure if it is worth changing or not. Hi Lomond (and jfschuurman), "Ghostly" versus "Ghastly" have slightly different meanings. (Just slightly, but it kind of changes...

Hi Franklin, You're good to go. Just one more thing: you don't need to add the artist name when you are exporting your project, because it will be filled in automatically by whoever BCs the project at the cataloguing stage. (The artist name in this case was Franklin Vios). No worries, though. Excell...

They could put it on Archive.org themselves, or perhaps Audible.

Hi Tricia,
I was thinking Audible too, but I wasn't quite sure. Just didn't want to put up false information without looking it up myself

OK,
No problem. Thanks for uploading!
