I am a bit confused about what went wrong here. I run everything past ACX checker and it shows Peak -3db, RMS -19.42 and Noise -61.32. All these meet the criteria for ACX check. Once I have adjusted the amplification by -3 it shows as a fail on ACX check. What system is being used for checking? Thi...

Thank you, Adrian.
Indeed, the opposite!

Thank you, Craig! Your recording is good, but Checker reports the volume is a little over 92dB. Could I have you Amplify by about -3dB, and re-upload?

You may! Thank you, Larry.

My own... perhaps over-acted rendition is in the MW, ready for PL. Must not fall asleep....

That said, I'll definitely be up for at least the first few chapters of a Henty, and 'The Young Colonists' looks good to me. And here, indeed, those young colonists are ! Take as many or as few as you're up for; I have no illusions that even a "light" Henty book will be a quick read. :wink:

His sympathies may be entirely with the English (as is our young protagonist), but his eye for historical detail and his ability to weave a per...

Thanks again!

Thank you, Inkell.

Moving us on to Short Works!

So then the _build_tags function would be much simpler. The foreach loop goes away, and all we would need to do is add to the $tag_data array: "url_source" => array($project->url_librivox) or url_publisher, though I think url_source would be more appropriate. Side note: according to wikip...

The editor is me, but the narrator position is open, as I am Emily and she does not narrate her whole story. So the narrator should be marked as available. The limit will be respected and all will be kept up with, never fear! :mrgreen: Precisely why I mentioned it! DRs are a lot more work than usua...

I'll have to see if I can get Photoshop. I wonder if there is a free version available. Will have to check. Adobe Photoshop isn't available for free, but there are similar programs you can get for free. In the video Tricia linked, they demonstrate making covers using this one: https://www.gimp.org/

I see from the DR Novels in Preparation thread that you have a narrator and editor lined up. Is that you, or do you have someone else signed on? Thanks for keeping up with your project in the current DR Scene & Story Collection, and for helping coordinate a previous volume of that collection. Th...
