I'm pretty new, making my way through the different kinds of texts to read. This looks like quite a detour from the poetry and stories. I'm open to feedback before and after, as I'm trying to finesse the process. If I can fill in the last Fish section 11 (Roach & Shad), and then take up some of ...

And... Section 3: Independence (23:00) 8-) https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/rover0106_3_various_128kb.mp3 wheww :!: The longer recordings do have a lot more room to trip over myself in editing. I hope I didn't make it too glitchy. In fact, I uploaded it twice because I wasn't 100% sure I gave you ...

Here's Section8 (1:42) To a Star

Let's see if that's any better. The Analyze plugin is a handy tool.

You know what, I just realized that my computer itself has a very fine microphone built in, which picks up the volume sufficiently, so no headset necessary, and now I have another version of adjusting to learn. :roll: On the plus side, I also found the linked page (down the rabbit hole of Recording ...

Actually I am having trouble loading the image which tells me the login for uploading

yes let's do a test run then. How about you record the next short poem and only edit out your errors, but don't amplify or noise clean at all. Then export to mp3 and send this to my folder, calling it rovertest or sth. And I'll have a look what your originalmis and what we can do with it. Well, I d...

I'm fairly new, and trying to explore the different types of readings out here. This seems like a fun variation, to have many people read the same poem. I'd love to upload my version. I'm open to feedback on the recording, as well. Thanks!

I also was wondering, what the Project code is for?

Since you wanted constructive feedback, I would like to check out your noise cleaning though. Are you using Audacity ? How did you noise-clean your file ? Because the silences are quite clear of background noise, but while you are speaking there is some rustling which does mar the whole listening e...

ok since it was such a short poem and I know you are eagerly awaiting feedback, I gave this a priority. I am sure, Jim won't mind that PL yours before his this time :) Thank you! (Sorry Jim!) I know you must squeeze this into a busy schedule, and I don't mean to weasel my way into the front of the ...

Section 7 (To Beauty) File uploaded (01:30)

Yay! This is fun!
I'll wait for your input before I finish the others.
Thank you!

I'm also wondering: As I 'export' my file to save it, Audacity has a popup window that asks me to input about seven tags like Artist Name, Track Name, etc. Since the instructions specify, when instructing how to save the file, "Please ignore tags for Genre and Track Number - these will be fille...

Here's a basic question: After reading the standard Intro, do we read the title and subtitle, or just subtitle, or just jump in to the section? For specific example, my section 5, the poem Pray For Me has a subtitle "By Millevove, on his deathbed at Neuilly". Do I read that? Or just immedi...

I would suggest strongly you read a few things from the open group projects first to get some experience.

Oh certainly. I'm not presumptuous enough to jump in to quite that level without some more experience under my belt. I want to do my books justice, if/when I share them.
