Hey is it possible if I can request an extension for my section, Ch 23 Part 1? I've already finished recording, but I am currently in the process of post-editing, which includes re-recording over some mistakes. I have been very busy during the past month due to summer school as well as recently reco...

Hi!

I'm currently in the process of editing my librivox recording. However, unfortunately, I noticed that I forgot to record a couple of sentences in a particular passage, or misread a word in another. Is there anyway dubbing over mistakes?

Thanks!

It's plugged in

Hi,

I've adjusted my microphone properties. I think that my recording volume is excellent, but I don't think it's showing up in the waveforms. The peaks are still at 0.5 or less.

Lynn, I am not sure what it might be without more information what computer/OS, what microphone, interface (if any)... Just a hunch: check with your sound device properties that you don't have AGC (Automatic Gain Control) set on your mic. If you do, turn it off and try again. Good luck! The compute...

Hi, I've been having an issue that's rather mic-related. Whenever I'm recording, I feel that I have to lean in and shout into the mic or else turn up my audacity recording volume to the max. Otherwise, my wave forms don't seem to hit the 0.5 level . Sometimes, it hits 0.5 or even 1, and then it star...

For me, I've been to China, Japan, Mexico, and the Bahamas. I've been to China a gazillion of times because I have family there. My most recent trip to China was actually a few weeks ago. For Japan, I didn't actually visit the country, but I had a layover there. I went to Mexico on a cruise trip wit...

I made my first burrito today with black bean burger patty (mashed to bits in the pan), scrambled eggs, and Mexican-style cheese. The cheese that I bought had also had taco seasoning on it, and it blended with the black bean patty completely. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't taste the cheese...

Am I supposed to read the words in the parentheses? In addition, are there any singing phrases in which I am supposed to remain silent?

I just picked up crocheting back in February. I've made two granny squares, and a hat which unfortunately didn't turn out too well. It isn't much, but I do plan on doing more. My potential projects now are figurines, a scarf, and a shawl.

Yes, I rely on patterns since I'm a newbie.

In addition, is there any guide or help on German pronunciations? I've been stumbling over myself

Hey mightyfelix, I'd like to use my real name, Lynn Cai. I do not have a website. Thanks

Mine are playing music (I'm a violinist), crocheting & knitting, cooking, learning foreign languages, and watching figure skating. I'm a former dancer as well, having danced for 8 years as a child. I hope to get back into it this summer :) Besides being a violinist, I hope to learn the ukulele o...

I'll take chapter 23 part 1. Here is my one-minute test: https://librivox.org/uploads/tests/one_minute_test_cleaned.mp3


Being a violinist, I'd love to do some of the music for ch 23 part 1 as well, but I can only do the excerpts that are in treble clef and without complicated chords.

I am also a violinist :D Been playing for 10+ years. I am currently the vice principal of my youth orchestra. Currently, I am working on Mendelssohn Concerto in E minor. Besides classical repetoire, I also enjoy other genres, including musicals and pop. Unfortunately, I have no pets as of now :( How...
