$3 - one of the settings slipped through the cracks. Please change the sampling rate should be 44.1 kHz.

Thanks,

Sorry this took so long to clean up

42 and 43 need some tweaks to the technical specifications. Pease change to a sampling rate 44.1 kHz and export again with a bit rate of 128 kbps. also in section 42, please change the chapter # to 42 at the very beginning of the recording. Corrections made and both files re-uploaded 42 - MILTIADES...

Re: What's a Book You Wish Was in the Public Domain?

I'd like to read The Earth For Sam (©1929) by William Maxwell Reed (d. 1962) which covers the history of the Earth as known at that time. I read my dad's copy as a child and it really inspired me. Another good one is The Stars For Sam (©1930), also by Reed, which was written just after Edwin Hubble ...

Re: [BIO/US HIST] The Youth of Washington: Told in the Form of an Autobiography - icequeen

Finally found some time to listen to your recordings, Chip, and your reading style is excellently suited :thumbs: . I only have a couple of notes for these first two. Firstly, both have been exported at 144 kbps and 24,000 Hz, and I suspect some of your others could be the same, though I have not y...

Re: audacity locking up

I don't know this for certain, but it may be the new version of Audacity. I'm on a PC and it's not letting me export MP3 files in anything higher than 24000. Sadly I can't find an older version to check it against.

Firstly, both have been exported at 144 kbps and 24,000 Hz, and I suspect some of your others could be the same, though I have not yet specifically checked. If you could re-export them both at 128 kbps and 44,100 Hz, that would be fantastic. Oh they're all that way. Though the Audacity files are at...

Re: Re-recorded sections at different levels

One trick that works for me is to, if I miss a word or hear some noise while I'm recording, I just start again with the previous phrase while I'm doing the original recording and then cut out the bad parts in post. Another trick I use is to read under a blanket. Not only does this help deaden outsid...
