Re: [GROUP SONG] "Away in a Manger" - Christmas Carol Collection 2020

I finally made some time to get this recording done. "New" microphone, it does a great job excluding background sounds, but I think it might not be the best choice for singing.

Thank you!

Re: [GROUP SONG] "Away in a Manger" - Christmas Carol Collection 2020

Is it possible to get a copy of the audio track that will be mixed in behind the voices? I will be submitting my contribution here soon, but I would also be interested in mirroring this effort with a group of my friends from our church choir when I was a kid. I can easily collect their audio and edi...

Re: Podcasting LV titles

Podcasting cataloged projects is much different than creating a community podcast. The community podcast is assembled and sent to Archive, like a regular project. The podcasts spoken of in the first post here would involve somehow taking the cataloged files and... submitting them to a podcast feed?...

Podcasting LV titles

As a heavy consumer of a particular genre of LibriVox recordings, I'm interested in making this content more accessible. I'd like to look into creating a podcast that specifically focuses on my favorite genre, where I would crank out a podcast episode for each title. I have tried searching the LV fo...

Re: ~[animals] True Stories about Pets by Jane Swisshelm -ck

May I please have section 10? This sounds like a cat I had when I was a kid, except he was cowed by bluejays.

Please note: this is incorrectly listed in the MW as "Some Spunky Birdy" while the title of the story in the book is "Some Spunky Birds"

Thanks!

Re: Struggling with sound

I'm using something I got off Amazon. It's a Neewer Brand Model #40093851. I just turned the volume all the way up for a test run, and my volume came in at 81.3db. I had a brief attempt with a cheap mic from Amazon (Fifine brand) but it was so bad I returned it. With my mouth physically touching th...

Re: Struggling with sound

Scott, Wow. Thank you so much. I'm floored that you would take the time to do that. Bless you! It took me a minute to get it all figured out because I had to figure out how to add replay gain and such, but I *think* it worked! Either way, you're just the best. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! You'r...

Re: Struggling with sound

Help. I've looked at many videos, but can't figure out my problem. My recordings don't have enough db. Right now, I'm around 80.5. I've tried amplifying the sound, but it's obvious that the waves don't increase that much, and Audacity won't allow me to amplify anymore without clipping it. When I do...
