Thank you Christine! I do have a few projects already on my plate, but as soon as clear them away, if there are still open sections I would be tickled to participate. Thanks again for the invitation. Be of good cheer.

Can I be listed for Chapter 14?

I upgraded microphones and might need to relearn my Audacity controls, so if you would recommend another 1 Minute Test I can do so following the guidelines given to new readers.

Yes that would be great if you would do the 1 Minute Test again first. However, I will put you in for Chapter 14. Congrats on the new mic! What kind?

Hello!
I would like to record Chapter 4 (When Thor Went to Jotunheim).
I'm quite new to recording audiobooks, that's why I'm only starting with one chapter.
Thank you in advance!

Hi and welcome to Librivox!
There are a few things to do before you get started.
If you haven't already, you will need to complete a one minute test - this is to check your specs are up to Librivox standards, and if not, you'll be given hints on how to remedy that. http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test
Please post your test in the Listeners Wanted forum (see the dropdown at the bottom of the page) for the speediest response. Waiting for the OK may seem tedious, but can save time in the long run. Please post the test result here so I know it is done.
Your Chapter, 4 , will be held for 1 month pending your test. Please keep in touch if there is a problem.
You will also need to be added to the catalog of readers. I will add you using your forum name, but if you prefer your real name or a pseudonym let me know. We can also link to a personal blog or website. If you click on your name in the Magic Window, you will be taken to your catalog page.Be sure to read the first post - all the info you need is there, but if anything doesn't make sense, just ask. The wiki (see the top of the page) has bundles of info too.

Andy, Andy, Andy, you sound great in this! I can see how daunting it would be with all those alliterations! Henry Wysham needs you though!
Chapter 10 notes:
4:57 should be "engendered"; I heard "endangered" p. 131

8:36 should be "visor"; I heard "visitor" p. 133

21:30 should be "that three ribs"; I heard "that the ribs"

23:01 There are a few more paragraphs to finish this chapter below the line. pp.141-145
Thank you!

One minor adjustment to the db of my test and I passed.
Second-hand Blue, from someone who got themself an XLR microphone for Christmas. As opposed to my previously borrowed Snowball Ice.

I cant get my Yeti Blue to stop making plosives unless I turn the volume to 85. Then it doesnt pick up my voice loud enough and I have to amplify the whole track by 6 at the end. Any tips?
