Could I take section 16? Paul Jones. This looks like a cool project and I look forward to being a part of it!
Thanks

This is my first ever Librivox recording and I would be eager to get your feedback.
Hi and thank you for your reading.
PL Notes

There should be 5 seconds of silence at the end of the file it is currently longer than this

As you are editing please could you correct the filename it should be

greatmenfamouswomen2_07_horne_128kb

If you could carry out the edits and reupload please.

Section 8 is PL OK

Just for future recordings it might be helpful to remove some of the background noise.

I you are using Audacity you can do the following.

Step 1 - Select a piece of background noise
Select a piece of background noise (no speech, breaths or other noises) in your audio.
In Menu click: Effect > Noise Reduction... A dialog will pop up.
Click "Get Noise Profile" The dialog box will close instantly.

Step 2 - Noise Reduction
Press CTRL-A / Command-A to select your complete recording.
In Menu click: Effect > Noise Reduction... again. Note: don't select "Repeat Noise Reduction" -- that instantly applies the default settings; you want to adjust the settings and preview the results before you apply the noise filters.
Set Noise Reduction (dB) to 12
Set sensitivity to 6.00
Set frequency smoothing bands to 3
Choose Noise: Reduce
Click ok

I must apologise.

I have incorrectly named all my recordings as you have noted in the MW. They are listed as PLOK and I did not pick up on the comment . Should I reload them with the correct file name or can that be done at your end ??

Please don't worry as there were no other corrections to make this can be done by the MC before the catalogue process. If it's any different I will let you know.
