Librivox contributor sounds descriptive enough.
That way, you can distinguish "those people what read stuff for that Librivox thingy" from "Librivox users/listeners" who consume the audiobooks.
Of course, one can be both.

Re: Recording a different translation of a book Librivox already has
Not a mod, but since Librivox allows for multiple recordings of the same text by different people, without putting a limit on how many there may be, I don't see why they would keep you from recording a different translation of the same text.

Re: Why is a description of a group project that I drafted showing up on mysticbooks.org?
What exactly their thought process is, I can't say, but this is how they describe themselves: "Our website features an extensive collection of books and audiobooks that are available for free, sourced from public domain repositories such as archive.org, gutenberg.org, and librivox.org." ht...

Re: The all-new "HELP! I have an Audacity problem" thread
Am still a bit fuzzy regarding how to use the Replay gain plugin. If you want to skip using Replay Gain, this is a simpler way: 1) Run your finished MP3 through Checker 2) Take note of the volume Checker measures (e.g. "84.1 dB") 3) In Audacity, use "Amplify" to make the whole t...

Re: marking mistakes when using Blue Yeti
Strange, I have a Blue Yeti set to cardioid and claps aren't filtered out. Do you maybe have a setting in your recording program to filter out part of the incoming audio? Like a noise gate? If you do and you want to keep on using it, then yeah,you need a different marker, like the longer silence sug...

Re: Volume Control
From the "input" side, I'm aware of two places to adjust your volume: 1) The dial knob on your microphone I'm no expert on how far you should turn it, but I think pretty far "up". I found that when I turn it too far, there was some kind of high-pitched tone in my recording, so I ...

Re: Recording Startup Difficulty
I have a Blue Yeti, too, and while I don't have the same problem, the first second or so of my recording would also be messed up due to Audacity's compressor doing a weird fade-in effect. You could use the same workaround as I do: At the beginning of the recording, say a few words you'll later cut o...

Missing final chapter "Jane Eyre, die Waise von Lowood"
Link: https://librivox.org/jane-eyre-die-waise-von-lowood-by-charlotte-bronte/ The source has two parts and the second part has 18 chapters, but the recording ends at "Zweiter Teil, Siebzehntes Kapitel, Abschnitt 2" = part 2, chapter 17, section 2. Apparently, this is an oversight, since t...

Re: HELP ME TO SET UP MY LAPTOP PLEASE
Does the warning mention that you need to be an administrator, or enter an administrator password to install Audacity? If yes, it could mean that your user profile on Windows is set up in such a way that you don't have the permission to install software. That can be useful as a security measure to k...

Re: How good?
Sometimes when I am reading in a language that is different than what I was born with, there are some words every once in a while that I am not quite sure how they are pronounced. But I make pretty educated guesses. Here, you can find pronunciation help for every language: https://forvo.com/ Users ...

Re: SOLO [GERMAN] Fräulein Detektiv von Matthias McDonnell Bodkin - loa
Ich bin fast durch mit der Bearbeitung des nächsten Kapitels (und habe auch den Haupt-Text des darauffolgenden Kapitels schon aufgenommen). Eine Charakterstimme noch, und die letzten Korrekturen, wo es irgendwie unpassend klingt - das schaffe ich vermutlich in den nächsten paar Tagen.
