I'll try to remove it but already have it on my list to re-record as the recording predates my external mic...

Thanks Jo!

I was going to pronounce Perrault as "PER-ahlt" so thanks for uploading y'alls files first!
Would enjoy any comments!

Here's Section 01 Subsection 03 @ 13:47: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ez/publicdomainhymns_01_03.mp3 I did NOT amplify this one as I had a fairly consistent peak greater than .5, let me know if you'd like me to go back to the drawing board and amplify it! I am personally more pleased wit...

Hello, I was reading under Tips & Tricks>Trimming Silences to a Consistent Value on http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Editing_Audio When I found a sentence confusing if not misleading: "Conversely, to increase the duration of a silence, select the amount of silence you need to add, hit Ctr...

If not, I am sure that she had considerable influence upon its composition, as she indeed had upon much of the poetry of her brother, who borrowed regularly from her very detailed and well written journals. The idea of the poe...

Here's Section 1 Subsection 2 @ 16:11 - http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ez/publicdomainhymns_01_02.mp3 I used the above naming convention since there seems to be a long future for this project ;) I didn't find what the magic window post had helpful SO if there are no objections I presume it...

Anyone know the pronunciation from his native tongue or at least the most widely accepted version? I believe I've heard/read it as 'Tuh-COME-suh', just my opinion on it though!

I've set a deadline (01/15/11) and set the intro and outro. Thanks for setting the intro/outro for the entire subsection but regarding each entry should we not specify the author of the words? I listened to a bit of your Subsection 1 and noticed only the title of the song not the author. I've been ...

Any chance I can claim #03 Blue Beard? These are some interesting tales...

Welcome Maggie! I'm from Giddings. Glad to see an Aggie here!

Sounds good, and can always use them individually under poetry I suppose until that time.

...Would you like to start with Section 1 Subsection 2? That way, we could turn Section 1 into its own volume. Sam Certainly will, any opposition to singing the familiars or keep it all to reading? Please accept this message as my claiming Section 1 Subsections 2 and 3 (if that is permissible to cl...
