Yes, and many make that mistake, he's certainly not the first one. I've been here too long to remember, but I probably made that mistake myself. The point of them is really to show that whatever is inside the brackets changes from file to file, but outside it is set.Kalamareader wrote: ↑November 21st, 2020, 1:57 pm Well, giving ellisadvantage a little break, in the instructions the role name is in brackets: montecristo_[role]_[#].flac
~FULL [DRAM.READ] Count of Monte Cristo by Alex. Dumas-mas
Abbe Faria chapter 17
06:45 – Switched the words so it became “young dear friend”, should be “dear young friend”. I usually don't correct switches, but this one sounds odd.
17:59 – A glitch, so the start of the word isn’t there

Abbe faria PL chapter 18:
05:20 – The word ‘great’ needs to be clearer
12:00 – ‘Death’ needs to be clearer
12:10 – Sounds like an editing mistake, ‘they’ repeated twice
The rest of the Abbe chapters are PL OK:)

Thanks for all your work.
I know it is sometimes hard to catch words when they are in an accent.
5:20 The word is 'greatest' and sounds OK to me
12:00 "Death" is pronounced correctly in Italian, "t" sound at the end instead of our 'th' sound.
12:10 Eliminated. Actually what I did was I added the word "that" (sort of).

Welcome to LibriVox! What Cataloge name would you like to have?
Please make sure you complete the "1 Minute Test" for review before you start actively recording any chapters for projects. This is NOT an audition, but a way to check to make sure all your technical settings are correct, your volume loud enough, etc. You will find the information for the 1-Minute Test Recording here: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test. The instructions also tell you how to upload your test and then post in the Listeners and Editors Wanted forum so someone can give you feedback on it.
Also, as this is a Dramatic Reading, here's a few tips to make a great recording.
First, try and make sure you have as little background noise as possible. Follow the tips here: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Noise_Cleaning.
Second, when recording a part, think of it as having a conversation. How would you naturally speak? read the text and see how the character reacts to the things around him, and if it doesn't say, then try to imagine it yourself. Let the reactions sound in your voice. A line can be read in extremely different ways, depending on if the character is sad or happy, so just remember to pay attention to the text and what is going on around him.
Third, when you edit after you have recorded (you will edit, we all do), leave at least 3-4 seconds between the lines, so that it will be clear when I edit where the break is.
At the Newbie Guide to Recording: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Newbie_Guide_to_Recording,you can see how to set up your computer to record.
If you'd like to introduce yourself to the community, you can do se here: http://forum.librivox.org/viewforum.php?f=17
An overview of how Librivox works can be found here: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/How_LibriVox_Works
There are numerous ways to volunteer here. An important one is proof-listening, which consists of checking someone's recording for errors. If you'd like to give that a try, you can find lots of information here: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Guide_for_Proof-listeners
One of our volunteers has created a number of videos that you might find helpful to learn more about the workings of Librivox. You can find a listing of those here: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/User:Philchenevert
Also to point out to professional (or aspiring) Voice Over artists, all our recordings are put back into the public domain which means sometimes they are sold on ebay, etc. Have a look at this page which describes our Public Domain policy: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Copyright_and_Public_Domain
I hope you have fun and please, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!

Apparently I'm a big fat liar when it comes to the dates I promise... but at least I didn't forget! Here is the missing chapter, 62, for Baroness Danglars.
I'm okay to do it again if need be - I was really not sure about 'Tuileries'.
