Section 4 is complete. https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/zeitgeist_04_dougall.mp3 The recorded length of the piece is 20:44. If there are audio issues with this section please let me know so I can fix them. I didn't hear anything when I went through the file, but I suppose that doesn't mean much.

animite, about the hum -- is your microphone standing on the desk along with your computer? No. I use a headset with a microphone for all of my recordings. Your description of the problem with the hum makes me wonder if there is a good solid connection at the mic/computer? It very well could be the...

Hi, Animite--Boy, you have a great voice, and you read beautifully!

Thanks for the compliment. I guess that's what you get for being born with a voice that sounds like a deep cavernous echo.

Lucretia, Thank-you for the revisions you posted on section 3. I have a certain feedback issue that happens when I record. As of this time I've not been able to determine if the fault lies with my microphone or the primitive soundcard in my monolithic Mac G4 Powerbook. Most of the time it occurs whe...

Happy holidays, Librivox. Here's a bit of holiday cheer in the form of the sections I volunteered for.

we always need the duration of the recordings, so that we can make sure the upload and downloads are complete

Will do.

I noticed that section two is a little short, so I'll go ahead and ask for section three. That way I'll have a word count roughly equivalent to the first section.

I think I'll tempt fate again and take the second section if I may.

Carolin, Here is the first section. I would have completed this sooner, but as the fates would have it, I came down with a marvelous head cold almost immediately after volunteering for this section. Nevertheless, clean living, good recording, and perseverance prevailed. :thumbs: :thumbs: https://lib...

thank you jake, that would be great

I wonder. Is the rhyme in this sentence intentional or is it a happy accident?

* Jacob, I had to change your filename for this one also, johnsercel again got in ahead of you. This will be something you both should watch out for on future projects. Another _js file will bump out the first, I restored the first _js file and uploaded Jacob's as _jsa to make room for both files. ...

Having been a member of Librivox for a few years, I cannot understand why some projects will be done before you can blink while others of the same quality will simply linger, making little progress at all. I think this book, for example, has merit as a philosophical argument over finding religion in...

Here is my reading on this poem. I think it went rather well.

Looks like I am the slowest reader by around four seconds or so.

Here are sections 5 and 6 again http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/kd/bookofmormon_05_smith.mp3 http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/kd/bookofmormon_06_smith.mp3 The duration of section 5 and section 6 is 25:08 and 16:54. I went through section 5 and cleaned all the plosives that you point...

I can go ahead and take care of section 11 now that I am done with those other two.
