Re: [ART] Practice and Science of Drawing by H. Speed - avai

Thanks, Availle and Todd. One comment to Availle: I don't do noise reduction before I edit because if I splice something in, it won't match. Unless I do noise reduction on the to-be-spliced bit, of course, but that could turn out to be a lot of steps. Todd: I'll try your suggestion. It will be a lit...

Re: [ART] Practice and Science of Drawing by H. Speed - avai

Hello Availle -- I need to beg off recording Chapter 6 -- sorry. I have tried twice to record my chapter, and both times I've had sound problems. My previous chapter (on another project) I ended up recording four times. I'll explain what's happening, and maybe you can suggest a fix or point me somew...

Can I record Chapter 6?

I can draw objects at some level of representation, but not people or animals. Those are HARD.

Re: [GRP][Biography] Jane Austen, by WH Helm-mas

Chapter 6 reader here.

I got different volume readings when I checked it, and it's a little too loud for me when I listen. So I'm going to leave the volume alone unless the MC wants me to change it.

Re: [GRP][Biography] Jane Austen, by WH Helm-mas

Here's Chapter 6: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/janeausten_06_helm_128kb.mp3

Length: 57:54

I got two different volume readings for it, depending on whether I used Audacity or MP3Gain. I can modify as needed ... I preferred listening to it at a slightly lower volume.

Re: ~[GRP][Biography] Jane Austen, by WH Helm-mas

Couple of questions: The chapters in this book start with a list of the sections in the chapter. Do you want me to read those, or skip them? My French pronunciation isn't great, but I'll look up the words before I record. I'm betting that a fair number of listeners will be unfamiliar with a fair num...

Re: ~[GRP][Biography] Jane Austen, by WH Helm-mas

I am warned. I will have some time this week, and then I'll have to skip a week, and then I'll have a lot of time.

Would it be useful to record and post it in pieces? Is this something that Librivox recommends?

Re: [food] Marion Harland's Cookery for Beginners -ck

Updated version of Chapter 7: https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/cookeryforbeginners_07_harland_128kb.mp3 I did not change any of the words, as per Carolin's note. I did check for the click and the background shuffling and hopefully they're gone. I had previously run noise cleaning on the file to ...
