Thank you Tricia...I would be happy to appear in the catalogue as Simon Wiltshire. Since it is my first time, I will certainly follow your suggestion and do the one minute test. Great! Here's your catalog page: https://librivox.org/reader/19454 When you click on Reader Section Details, you can see ...

I won't be MC'ing this, partly because it's not PD for me. Regarding the collection: just like any other collection, you'll need to enter the section metadata into the MW when you get one. Instructions here: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Soloists:_How_to_update_the_Magic_Window#Special_I...

I suggest posting a new thread/topic asking that, so that this thread doesn't get cluttered with your individual issue. :) A bonus is that you'll probably get more eyes on your question than you would in here. EDIT: Oh, I see you already have! https://forum.librivox.org/viewtopic.php?p=2322044#p2322...

24.2 is dead silence. If you're hearing static, it's not from the recording. Perhaps it's from your speakers, or the wires going to your speakers.

Or, are you hearing the static in your vocals that isn't in the end silence?

In the meantime (or in case it's not used as a weekly/fortnightly), you could always submit it in the short poetry collection! The current one will be wrapping up next week.

I just did. The Gutenberg text is clearly PD, so that could be used as the weekly or fortnightly poem.

OK, we'd need to find a clearly PD version of that. (Just because it's freely available on some website doesn't mean it's PD. It may have been altered from its original form, etc.) I found that version in this work: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/62474 Actually, there are 3 versions of the ballad ...

Two more ready.

Do you have a link to it?

EDIT: I found it, here: https://archive.org/details/illustratedbriti00georrich/page/330/mode/2up

Great. Moving this to Going Solo.

This is set up.

Argh! I greatly dislike when they significantly change things! Yes, I'm still back on 2.4.2.

Just sections 11-21?

Yeah, I just click the line to make it disappear, but I usually only have a couple.

And you can also just pause, rather than stop-and-start or let the thing keep recording. I think it's P on the keyboard? That's what I do.
