LibriVox Forum

Good news. The last section of Bezhin Meadow in my teading is the Constance Garnett translation. I've just had a peek at the credits for the Dell book. Now I just have to re-read the earlier sections.

I can always do the reading again. That is no problem. I'll go to Gutenberg in future. I didn't realie copyright would be an issue- but of course this is a translation....

I don't have a URL for the text source. I will have to locate it. Can you give me a little time.

The text source was from 2 books. I chose the sections from each where I like the translations best. They were Penguin Classics 'Ivan Turgenev - Sketches from a Hunter's Album (most of the reading) and 'Great Russian Short Stories' by Dell, Laurel Edition. (The final third of the reading) The runnin...

The mono/stereo is fixed- as is the bit rate (now 128). I used Apple's Compressor to do this. The file is posted in the Short Poetry section.

I'll get the technical issues sorted out and post to the poetry section. I didn't mean to cost you money. Please delete the file.

I've done a new mix of 'The Raven'. Barely any different than the first. But this time in mono, less reverb, and the LibriVox titles and disclaimers added. Let me know what you think. I'm presently working on Bezhin Meadow which is pretty long- so it'll take a while to get right. And then... maybe s...

Sadly I felt as though ditching my Audiobooks app was the only solution and re-building my library. Does anyone have an iPhone app they can recommend for accessing and listening to LibriVox material?

Ah ha! I've noticed the 'Books' section in iTunes on my desktop Mac. It has a couple of LibriVox recordings in there. 'Moby Dick' and 'Fanny Hill'. But not 'Heart of Darkness' and a few others. I must investigate. Thanks for the information. Nevertheless my cycle rides are going to be a pain with Mi...

Thanks for the pointer David- but my version of Audiobooks, which I believe is the latest, doesn't appear to have a '2x' box in the top right hand corner. I would delete the app but I think it will take all my Audiobooks data with it. I've never scene the Eisenstein movie. I really should. I believe...
