No worries! LibriVox has some strange (but necessary) standards. What I mean is that it is a bit shuffled. The disclaimer, as stated in the first post, is:

"Chapter one of Siddhartha. This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
"Recording by Peter Kuhn
"Siddhartha, by Hermann Hesse. Part 1... Chapter 1..."

what I heard was:

Siddhartha, by Hermann Hesse
Chapter 1
This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
Read by Peter Khun
Part 1.... Chapter 1....

So you have all of the info, but if you compare the two you will find that they are quite scrambled.

I have adjusted chapters 1 and 5

I have made adjustments to chapters 9-12

Here are the notes:

X Chapter 9:

X 9:41 – stumble ‘do is l-to listen’

X 11:33 – missing text ‘thought’

X 23:17 – heard ‘left him’ instead of ‘left me’

X Again, the ending disclaimer is different than any others. Also, make sure to have the 5 seconds of silence at the end!



X Chapter 10:

X Beginning silence is at 1.5 seconds

X 7:40 – heard ‘teachings’ instead of ‘teachers’

X 7:57 – heard ‘better’ instead of ‘bitter’

X 11:08 – stumble ‘a murky-f source’

X 17:05 – heard ‘semana’ instead of ‘Siddartha’

X Same ending disclaimer note





X Chapter 11:

X Please keep an eye on your beginning silence, this is at 1.5 seconds when it should be 0.5-1. This should be an easy cut.

X As you know, the ending disclaimer here is again inconsistent.

X Also, in the future, please be careful with noise reduction. This recording sounded more muffled than normal.



Chapter 12:


X 2:47 – stumble ‘I don’t quite – e – understand’

X 8:09 – heard ‘it does not’ instead of ‘does’

X 11:07 – stumble ‘learn-u-how’

X 16:35 – ‘me’ was very quiet, and I only heard it when I listened multiple times

X 20:06 – heard ‘mindness’ instead of ‘mildness’

X 26:38 – repeat of ‘deeply he bowed, touching the ground’

As you probably know, your ending disclaimer does not match your proposed one

Chapter 12:

for the ending disclaimer, make sure the first part is consistent with the other chapters (currently it says 'this ends chapter 12' instead of 'end of chapter 12'). Also, I noticed you didn't put your name in. This is more than fine, but I thought I would point it out in case you wanted it there.

Thanks (once again) for all your patience. I understand and agree that consistency is important, I just seem to have a hard time coloring within the lines....

I am fine with not having my name in the ending credits, thanks for asking.

Ah yes, the details can be tricky. I think and hope that you will find that the more you record, the more natural this will become.

Good news is that all are now PL OK! This was another fun book to listen to, thanks for reading so wonderfully.
