Section 25 is now PL-OK. The new upload had the same technical deficiencies as the original file--but I had a few spare minutes between meetings and so I went ahead and cleaned it up. I've also adjusted the file length in the MW to 24:39. The link for the checker is http://wiki.librivox.org/index.p...

Thank you. Did you re-record it? That is rarely necessary and creates extra work for the PL. No. Luckily, I hadn't saved the compression and amplification I had been experimenting with, so when I reopened the mp3 in Audacity it was at the original levels. So I just re-uploaded the un-amplified vers...

1. The checker showed that the file was too loud. It tested at 93.1 db. The target is 89 db +/- 3 db. Use the amplify effect in audacity to reduce the level of the file. 2. At the end of the file, the silence should be about 5 seconds. It is over 8. Thank you. Shortened the end to 5 seconds. I was ...

Can I please do section 27 Water and 28 Beverages?

I love my mic! :9: I think you're probably right that it was just a bad connection between the computer and the mic. Thought about trying to edit them out manually but the recording is almost 20 minutes long and I think that would end up taking longer than making a new recording. :| Thanks for the a...

There are no electronics in the room I record in, don't even bring my phone with me. All the outlets are empty. :hmm: I did a test recording for 15 minutes and there are no clicks to be found, so that's a good sign... :) Strange... maybe it fixed itself. I've been wondering if there was a way to lis...

https://librivox.org/uploads/xx-nonproject/backgroundclick.mp3 There's a sample of one of the more click-ridden portions. This is after I applied the Click Remover function in Audacity so they are definitely quieter now but still quite noticeable. I did not have any other programs running, just brow...

Hello all! :) I tried searching the forum to see if anyone had asked this yet but didn't have any luck. In my last recording, about 10 minutes into it, a clicking sound appeared in the playback background. It wasn't from cell signal interference. And I'm not sure what else could cause clicking like ...

Would like to do Chapter 25, if that's okay?

PL notes for Section 17: I would second everything that Lynne said earlier. However, for the most part, the audio for this file was excellent--there are just a few notes at 00 there is a "boom" in the audio. From 1:23-1:27, the audio sounds "choppy" as if slivers of unsound were...

Thank you! I was able to smooth it out quite a bit by just editing out a few things here and there. The limiter also helped a lot. Don't know if I need to post the link again, but I re-uploaded the recording with the minor tweaks. https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/lastegyptian_17_baum_128kb.mp3 No...

After listening to my recording after posting it, there are a few changes I would like to make. :oops: I need to add a hard limiter for sure. Also, I had some difficulty getting consistency in my edits so some of them sound really different :shock: ... is there anything I can do, other than recordin...

Also, can I do Chapter 21? I may want to do more after I finish with these but I don't want to claim too many at once.

Thank you for your help!
