I am hugely enjoying Ruth's superb reading of this E Nesbit book: http://librivox.org/the-wonderful-garden-or-the-three-c-s-by-e-nesbit/ (ok, I am, er, a little out of the target age range, but I never read this one when I was growing up and see no reason to miss out :wink: ) The cover art is gorgeo...

Three small points noted while listening to the excellent reading of section 5: - 00:14 - text says "But, true or not true , your brother is a scoundrel", I hear "But, true or not, your brother is a scoundrel" - 02:38 - three slightly distracting taps in the silence before "...

The MW has caught up! Thank you both

This feedback has totally made my day :9: thank you so much! It was worth all those hours :D I will tackle those two missed/incorrect words this evening and reupload. I listened to the song on my phone, but want to enjoy it properly this evening. Very impressive and joyous! I particularly enjoyed sp...

And finally (I am so sorry it has taken this long): http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/rg/8thanniversary_octagon_lvd.mp3 54:48 / 50.2MB As noted above I had problems with this recording - I hate to think how many hours of post-production it has taken! (With hindsight it might have been better ...

Thank you Katie!

I'm editing my first play, so I'm feeling my way too, and will be following this thread with interest! My new favourite key in Audacity is B. I select what I think is the correct portion of speech, and then position the cursor and press b on the keyboard. This makes Audacity play the bit between the...

I haven't disappeared - I'm just having to spend a really long time cleaning up my recording. I think I may have done something stupid with the mic placement, or maybe my vocal technique is really rusty, and it's a long one I'll do what more I can this evening, and then upload.

Hello from Oxfordshire!

I love it when I find that I have a particular book in common with someone We are in good company, apparently J K Rowling loved it when she was growing up as well
I might have to go and read it again now ...

I'll take section 11! :) Welcome to LibriVox! I am delighted that you have chosen this project for your first recording. I have put your name in the notes against section 11. Before recording, though, please first complete the one-minute test . This is not an audition, but a check to ensure that yo...

PL ok for chapter 9 :D Yay! Katie, I have noticed that there are a couple of little technical issues with your file. It is just a touch on the quiet side, at 86 dB. We aim for 89 dB and with a group recording it's better if volume is more or less consistent so that listeners don't have to change se...
