   IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
   
   Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

If you wish, I will serve as the DPL. (Don't feel obligated; you may have someone else in mind, which is perfectly fine.)

[KevinS]

I will add here that once you are picked up by an MC, you will get access to the MW and you can choose then if you really want the full 22 sections. When I gave instructions earlier, I should have said you would want 22 sections if you wanted to record each chapter as a section. That's always a option, but you could do as you please and record chapters 1 through 3 as a section, for instance. or chapters 1 through 5 or whatever. It's your project, so you are free to do as you wish.

I would appreciate it! Especially since the YLT NT was your prompt, I think it’d be great for you to be able to ensure consistency of quality. Thanks, Kevin!

Thank you...that’s a good point. I don’t mind recording and uploading separately, but maybe it’s better for the listener to not have to click around every few minutes if they want to listen through? I was thinking for study/reference the 22 chapter separation would be good. I’m always open to recommendations, though!

Quality! Quality?

I better put on a tie!

You make a very good point about study. The Young translation is one that requires a certain dedication to what it offers. It's certainly different than the NT I read as a boy. That was the Good News for Modern Man translation. (I have a friend who shudders when I tell her that. Hahah! I still like it for what it attempts.)

I will find how Revelation has been treated elsewhere here and post links, just so you can see. Again, you're the boss. (Well, after your MC.)

[KevinS]

Here's a very good argument for 22 sections: https://librivox.org/revelation-king-james-version/

It is Mark's recording of the YLT OT that we are trying to complement. His KJV treats each chapter separately.

Thank you for looking into this! I agree about YLT; our SS teacher always references and quotes it and it makes for a very rich study!
I will leave it at 22 sections

Brooke,
I'd be happy to MC this for you. I'll get your MW set up and be back with some further instructions.
MaryAnn

[MaryAnnSpiegel]

OK, Your MW is set up.

For a solo project, you are the Book Coordinator. That means you fill out the Magic Window and post your links and times in the window when you upload your files.

You'll need to start by logging into the magic window. Instructions are in the BC How-to; and this is a more detailed version of the First Login instructions (with pictures!) Please be sure to read all of the BC How To document, as that will give you more information on your role as a BC.

[Lot of people use the same password for the forum and the magic windows. That makes it easy to remember. Just remember, the systems are not linked, so if you change your password on one side, it will not automatically change for the other system.]

Next, you'll need to start entering section (or chapter) titles. I've entered the first couple to get you started.

Then you are ready to start recording. When you upload a section, it's your responsibility to add the link and duration (mm:ss) to the Magic Window. Link from the uploader goes in the "listen URL" column, duration goes in the "notes" column. Then be sure to post in the thread that a new section is ready for PL so your DPL knows there is something new.

If you have questions, or if you have any trouble with the instructions in the BC how to, please post and we'll work through it together. There is a bit of a learning curve when you do your first solo.

Thank you so much!! This is my first solo and I appreciate all this information...I am learning and so glad to have such kind help.

[AlongsideMom]

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to begin recording here! January was a very busy month for me...

Here is chapter 1, 3m48s -

https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/revelation_01_ylt_128kb.mp3

One request for the MC... could we change the wording of the intro and end of book wording to "...Young's Literal Translation, by Robert Young" instead of "...Young's Literal Translation, by Young's Literal Translation" ? It just sounded odd when I first tried it with the repeated phrase. I recorded it the prior way, and wanted to make sure that was OK before I did more.

Also, since I am the BC, do I not need to post a message with download link? I just upload and then add to MW for the PL? Thanks!

[AlongsideMom]

So, I clicked on BC admin below the MW, and it is saying I don't have permission... This is where I need to log in to change the MW, yes?

I have forgotten if this is your first BC project. If so, you may need to create a new password. I'll try to find a link where that is described.
