Hi,
Maria/mmglory here

I did 2 takes. 1st is the raw take

so you can hear all the craziness I attempt to clean out & maybe you have a solution.
2nd - my attempt at a clean file.

It still sounds like I am in a well.

I use Audacity, Scarlett Focusrite mic set up through my computer/word. [Student of Such a Voice, so this equipment was provided by them].

Thank you for any assistance /feedback.

Hi and welcome to Librivox. The second one is much better. Your reading is great there are just some edits needed please.

The bit rate should be 128 kbps. When you export the file change ‘quality’ to 128kbps.

The recording should use a constant bit rate. When you export the file change ‘bit rate mode’ to ‘constant’

Please could you carry out the edits then upload the file using the same file name. If you need any more help please just ask. Thanks
