Thanks Darrell, your recording is fine, but there are a couple of technical issues you need to address.


File name should be ssf078__beyondthedoor_dick__dn__128kb.mp3 where 078 is number of the collection it will be published in at Librvox

There should be a second of silence at the begining, you have about 1 a second

There should be 5 seconds of silence at the end, you have about 2 seconds

Can you fix these and resubmit?

Amy will take care of adding this to the Catalog.

Thanks,

James.

Thanks for your story, Anna. How would you like your name to appear in the catalog.

Thanks for your explanation, James.

-Amy :)
AnnaR is fine for the catalouge. And thanks for your patience.
Anna,

Your recording sounds good, good tempo, and voice changes, clear voice with no background noise. I assume you did some editing to get this quality, good job. If you can pull of this quality of recording in a single pass without editing FABULOUS!

You do have some technical issues that need to be corrected. I think all of these can be corrected without re-recording.

* Bit rate is 192 should be 128kbps
* Volume is low at 78.7 should be between 86-92
* Need 1 second of opening silence, you have less then half a second
* Ending silence should be about 5 seconds, you have almost 10 seconds.


There are links in the opening post for new person help. You might want to work through the 1 mintue test to learn about the technical issues.

Your submission post looks mostly good, you used all lower case, and have a good links to a PD work. :)

You do need to include the actual run time, of the recording; minutes and seconds. As this will change when your resubmit please included the run time when your resubmit.

James,
Here's the version with all the fixes.
