Thank you! I would like to be credited as "Jennifer Wilson". Since this is my first effort, I'd appreciate a few words of feedback on my reading and recording (from you or the DPL) if you have time.mightyfelix wrote: ↑April 14th, 2021, 9:48 pmThank you, I'm happy to sign you up! So sorry that it took a couple of days to get back to you. I must have overlooked this project the last time I did my updating.
How would you like to be credited in the catalogue? You can use your real name, forum name, or some other pseudonym. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help you get started!

Chapter 7 - Oratory: Isocrates, Demosthenes
Duration: 12:56

Note: I understand the protocol about being assigned before recording, but I started it several days ago as a personal project to get used to reading and to familiarize myself with editing in Audacity.

This is in the MW (magic window) for our DPL, Leni, to listen to. I don't think I myself will have time to listen and provide feedback, but Leni is very helpful and experienced.

The recording is great, all the tech specifications are fine. I have no reason to say your recording is not PL OK! However, just in the spirit of improvement, I suggest you observe if maybe you are moving away from the microphone sometimes during the recording. It is not very bad at all, and I do not think you need to change or re-record, but twice or three times in this track there are moments when the recording gets a bit lower, and I feel it has to do with moving away. As an example, listen to the track between 2:30 and 2:40. At 2:37 the volume changes a bit. Later it picks up again. But I am marking it PL OK, and I think you should be very happy with this recording!

Thank you for the feedback, Leni. I understand what you are saying, and I was puzzled by the volume changes. I am recording using a headset, and I recorded the selection in one sitting, so it's not that I'm moving away or adjusting the microphone. I noticed the change in volume levels and did my best to correct them using Amplify in Audacity, but I'm still getting used to the options and the changes they make. Perhaps I need to upgrade my headset.Leni wrote: ↑April 17th, 2021, 6:37 pmHello, Jennifer, and welcome to LibriVoxLeganto wrote: ↑April 14th, 2021, 11:05 pm Chapter 7 - Oratory: Isocrates, Demosthenes

I will assign this section to you, but before you get started on it, we strongly suggest that you complete a one-minute test to be sure that your tech and equipment is all set up properly: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test It's much easier to catch and correct tech issues in a short little blurb than in a lengthy chapter. Let me know if you need clarification on how to submit the test.
