Hi Lynne,

I've just had my one-minute test approved, so I'm ready to start with my chapter. Believe it was 36?! Looking forward to it!

Hi, it's Libby, I'm coordinating this project, although Lynne certainly helps a lot!

You have reserved section 38. Since this is your first time, I need to add you to our catalog. Can you let me know what name you'd like to appear on your catalog page (most people use the name that they say after "read by," so that all your adoring fans can find you), and if you have a blog or other website that you'd like to link to, I can add that, as well.
What am I up to?

Ahh, Libby! So sorry :oops:

Chapter 38 it is! My name might appear as Brantly Moore. So far, I don't have a personal website, but I suppose I could always add one later?

I'll start the recording asap!

Thanks,

MissB

No worries! And yes, you can add a site link later. Good luck!

Hi Libby,

I've just finished my first recording of chapter 38. Hopefully all of the settings are correct and the quality is good, but please let me know if there is anything I need to change.

Thanks!

PL Notes for section 38

At the beginning of the file please can you say the following

Book 8 chapter 10 of Amelia volume 2 in place of chapter 38

At the end of the file you need to say the following as it is the end of the book

End of book 8 chapter 10, end of Amelia volume 2

There then needs to be 5 seconds of silence at the end of the file.

The first half of the file is very quiet and the second half of the file is very loud if you are using Audacity you can do the following to solve this problem.

In Audacity select the whole track then apply the following settings for compression

Compression settings: Threshold: -14dB, Noise Floor: -40, Ratio: 2:1, attack and release left default, Make-up gain: unchecked, and Compress based on Peaks: unchecked

Here is a video by Phil Chenevert which shows clearly how to do this.

Let me know if you need any more help thanks.

This may then reduce the overall volume so you may need to amplify the whole file a little bit to bring it nearer to 89dB

I am sorry that seems such a lot to do and if you need any help I am more than happy to help with this.
