Section 41, please. Section 41 assigned :wink: Thank you. Here we are: https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/flowersofevil_41_baudelaire_128kb.mp3 (1:44) I'm anxious to see how close these translations are to the original. I haven't any French, though, so I'll have to rely mostly on other translatio...

Section 41, please.

I've been listening to Procol Harum. Happy memories!

Last night I could almost forget my horrible reaction to morphine by listening to Schubert's: Piano Sonata in A Minor D845 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyTb0ThLCyo&ab_channel=Schwammerl I hadn't been using my CD player for years (just relying on YouTube) and had forgotten just how how beauti...

Welcome! You're good to go, but I should point out that there is a moderate amount of background noise in your recording. The Audacity noise reduction effect can eliminate that problem. Also, your volume is 0.3dB too quiet. Hahaha! We won't hold that against you! When you do record your first sectio...

Good point!

This is great!

When you get your new gear, I'll be glad to offer any advice you might desire.

Here is the 'checker' program: https://cgjennings.ca/projects/checker/

I use it for each of my recordings just to be sure I've got the technical needs met.

Hi. I just went and uploaded a new test file https://librivox.org/uploads/tests/test2_javiermenteguiaga.mp3 Hope this works better. Haha! Now the recording is 8dB too quiet. The hiss is gone, however, and I think you're good to go. In a bit, I'll point you to the 'checker' program so that you can t...

Hello. Here is the link to my voice test. I'm using a IMac Mini, Audacity latest version, and a USB microphone. I have better gear coming in this week. I look forward to hearing from someone. Have a blessed day. Javier https://librivox.org/uploads/tests/test_javiermenteguiaga.mp3 Javier, welcome! Y...

Chapters 11 and 12 are PL OK. Wow, that Amanda is definitely something else.

Thank you!

Amanda sets my teeth on edge.
