Hoping there's a PL for this one who can let me know if there are any major flaws.

I apologize for the hiatus! I've been away at college and haven't had as much time as I would have liked to record this project and others. I'll finish and upload the first chapter just to give this project a definite base to build up from. Afterwards if there's a DPL who would be willing to take on...

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the help you've provided me with so far. I've begun recording and will finish soon as possible. Sorry for the delay so far.

Section 2 is PL OK! Section 4: besides the name of the file that is not following the suggested scheme, I noted that - between 8:58 and 9:02 there is a long-ish silence; - at 21:41-42 there is a slight stumble; - there is only 1 second of silence at the end. I think I fixed everything you listed ab...

Switching back and forth is not a good option especially if you are not using identical editions. Here is an alternate scan of the 1919 text to consider. https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015001143778;view=1up;seq=15;skin=mobile Fantastic! Thank you for this. Skimming through it, nothing...

Also, an important bit of information to whoever decides to be the MC: Above, in the original post I made about the book, it states that there is no preface or introduction. There is a foreword, but it is less than one page, meaning that it would likely be more constructive if I include it in the sa...

Awesome, thanks Foon! I'm very grateful. I'll have the recordings ready for us to work on soon. There's just a few things though -- First, I'm not very familiar with German names and places so I'm going to be going off of light research and intuition when I pronounce them. There aren't too many, but...

There was no description listed on the archive page, nor does a wikipedia page exist for this particular work, so I decided to handle this as awkwardly as possible and enter "N/A" into the dialogue boxes on the submission page. So, uh... yeah. I'll look for a description of the work on ano...

Section 19: There is only 1-2 seconds of silence at the end of the recording, when there should be 5. Also, the recording is a bit on the softer side, at 86dB, so I recommend amplifying a bit. :) Gotcha. Here's a version I tried to fix -- MP3Gain didn't seem to do much good for the volume on my end...

Chapter 19 is done!

Chapter 20 is still in the oven. I'll likely have it submitted Saturday.

Alright! I've finished my recording of Chapter 4. I got a couple of bloopers out of it, too! https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/romanceofpiracy004.mp3 (Timed at 23:25) Assuming that the PL is alright with what I've done so far, I'd also like to claim chapters 19 and 20. They're both relatively sho...

Hi and welcome to librivox! You are welcome to read that section. As this is your first claim, i have to enter you to the reader database. To be able to sign you up, i need to know under which name or pseudonym you would like to appear in the catalog. We can also link to your personal website or bl...

What an exciting topic! I'd like to volunteer for Chapter 4, The Corsairs of the South, if that's alright.

It's a Blue Yeti! I fell in love with it after using one to record a story for school -- nice crisp sound, and good for a variety of purposes.

Probably not the best in the world but it's miles ahead of the camera-mounted microphone I was using for everything before.
