Here is section 28: https://librivox.org/uploads/brownrottger/bigbluebook_28_cory_128kb.mp3 11:48 I am trying out different ways to filter out/reduce unwanted ambient noise without inadvertently making the voice sound too processed. If you have feedback on how this latest try sounds, please let me k...

Hello again! May I try #28, The Visit?

A slightly technical question: you're right, I think the distortion comes when I use noise reduction, but I thought it was necessary to remove the very slight ambient hum/drone that I hear in the silences? I select a few seconds of silence from the beginning of the clip where I always have extra si...

https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/policemanbluejay_05_baum_128kb.mp3 05:54 Here is chapter 5. Thanks again! Chapters 4 and 5 are PL OK - thank you. Chapter 5 is a pretty sad story for little kids! (Since you asked for feedback earlier) both of these chapters sounded a bit 'processed' when ...

Thanks, and any feedback is welcome! (It's only a fast turnaround because I recorded and edited the chapter before, just for personal practice

Hi, I'm happy to read Chapter 19, Flying a Kite, if a reader is still needed there?

Thanks so much, Rich, here's the link to a corrected file -- reading "chapter 16" at front and end, removing the redundant section, and correcting file name. (Big oops all around...!)

https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/policemanbluejay_19_baum_128kb.mp3 06:49 Phil, I'd welcome your feedback. I'm still climbing a steep learning curve (and have not yet acquired a pop filter). I'd be particularly curious if there are any 'standard' post-edit filters that experienced readers ...

I missed this in all of the other messages we had back and fo...
