Well, not quite, but there was a lot to do! But I did it, and hopefully the replaced file is somewhat less embarrassing!I do hope you have your correct copy still and don't have to do the editing from scratch

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
Oh NO, I'm so sorry! I got a new laptop and was using it to record for the first time, so that's why the settings are wrong. I am suspecting you sent me an unedited file I'm sure you are right :oops: I did this recording over several separate sessions and on two different computers, so that is why i...

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
I will do all the fixing of PL notes at the end, but for now, section 18 is done! It's an hour long!

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
Section 17 done! Phew! :roll: I'm afraid the recording is a bit fuzzy, I was speaking into the side of the mic to avoid plosives and I think I overdid it. I think it's bearable, but I am sorry about it. I think I'll record the remaining sections before I fix up all remaining PL changes at the end.

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
Hi Sonia, another quick question. In the upcoming section there's a bit about some cassowary eggs, with a little diagram. What do you think if I describe it as follows: One egg in the first row. Three eggs in the second row. Five eggs in the third row. Three eggs in the fourth row. Or do you have a ...

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
Thank you!!! Sonia, you've helped me be able to face it, so here's hoping I get the whole thing done by the end of the year... we shall see :shock: The egg theory sounds good to me! :lol: Anne, hi! :D Your thoughts about the map sounds like it is very probably what happened. And yes, I'll be glad to...

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
Still here... :oops: I'm hugely intimidated by the next section, which is SO LONG! Also I've been meaning to ask, the beginning of this chapter refers to a map, but there's an editor's note in Project Gutenberg that says there is no map. Do I ignore all references to the map completely? Or just leav...

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
. Time goes SO fast :oops: I have recorded the first part of the next section but I got halted at the table about settlers at the Ponds, which isn't properly aligned in the Gutenberg text so doesn't make sense. But later I managed to find 'Sydney's First Four Years' in archive.org here: https://arch...

I'm still here and so sorry for the delay. It's important to me that I finish this and not give up on it... but I'm struggling a bit. I apologise and really plan to get it done soon!

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
I hope you're enjoying your vacation! Here is my next section: https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/settlementatportjackson_12_tench_128kb.mp3 Duration 12:55. I'm guessing you can tell that I've lost enthusiasm for this project. But I'm determined to finish it! I hope to get it all done sooner rather ...

Re: [SOLO]A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson by Watkin Tench - kit
This recording gave me SO much trouble! And I'm still very unhappy with it but honestly I never want to see it or hear it again :evil: One problem is that I started recording merrily enough and didn't realise that though my mic was plugged in, Audacity hadn't recognised it. So this is all done on my...

I've had a break to deal with life stuff the last couple of months, but I hope to be back on board very soon
