What software are you guys using to determine the dB of an audio file? Maybe I can get the same software or something like it.

Hi Henry,
This is the checker that will let you know your volume and other tech specs:

and here is MP3 Gain that will only tell you volume.
http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/

I hope his helps.

Thanks! I made some small fixes and got it in the right dB range now I think. Some fixes I made were:
1:34 chagrin
11:51 apoplexy
Some minor volume adjustments on redone parts for continuity of volume

I'm learning a lot of new words in this old story.

Nicely done and no reading errors, however the overall volume is too high at 94.8db. The desired range is 86 - 92db. Please reduce the volume by -3+db and upload a new file. Thanks.

If it isn't a lot of trouble could you tell me how to set it to the right dB? I don't know how to do it and I don't understand the tutorials I have watched. I'm using Audacity.

Jeez, this is embarrassing. I checked your audio again, and it's fine. That comment was intended for someone else. Chapter 5 now PL OK. I'm sorry I caused you to waste your time.

Chapters 11 & 12 PL OK.

Thank you all. Henry, would you like to read more sections from this book?

[Henry89]

Thank you all. Henry, would you like to read more sections from this book?

Yes, I've read through to chapter 9 and, seeing as it's the next one open I will record it next.

It's a hell of a cliffhanger, but I won't mind some extra time to meditate on the mystery before reading ch 10.

[miss stav]

Hi Henry, tell me if I got you right. 9 and 10 are all yours.

I only want to commit to one chapter at a time, so let's leave ch 10 open for now. I don't know how I'll feel about doing another chapter until after I finish one, and I don't want to prevent other people from doing one I reserved only for me to back out of it later due to fatigue or other obligations. In any case, I will happily keep ch 9 and start it today.

Chapter 8 is uploaded.

Are chapters 9 and 10 available, I see they still say open? If they are I can take those. Thanks.

Chapter 6 PL OK.

[miss stav]

Hi Vivian, thanks for chapter 8. 10 is not available but 9 is. How about you take 9 and 18?
Stav.

[VivianWeaver]

Absolutely Stav......after reading through the above, can you confirm you want me to read chapter 9 and not 10? Thank you. Taking on 18 as well.
