I'll reserve the part for you. I see you have not yet submitted your 1-minute test (just to see if your audio settings are correct for librivox).
Ha! Well, you're a good team!mightyfelix wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2021, 9:20 amAww, thanks. But I only reported the findings of the other admins.
Welcome, Chuck! Nice to have you aboard. Your voice enhances any project.

please?
Thank you both so much. I've signed you up.chancebarrington wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2021, 4:41 pmI would love to voice Catherine in Chapters 2 and 9. Can i ask for two parts? Miss Baedeker? It's 4 lines in Ch. 6, and should be separated enough from Catherine.
Is it okay if I start my part this weekend? I have some new equipment coming on Friday and I'll have my closet/soundbooth ready by then. I've been doing recordings with my laptop mic which I know is a no-no, but I was just too excited I couldn't wait.benderca wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2021, 7:07 pmrealisticspeakers wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2021, 3:10 pmI would like to do the Butler in Ch 7 and 9

I chose the first source on the list above and did some random checks throughout my scripts and found no discrepancies. I've updated the link in the Magic Window. I'll go ahead and post my scripts (but I'll continue to check for inconsistencies), and I think you can move this project to Readers Wanted.mightyfelix wrote: ↑January 2nd, 2021, 3:00 pm
Ok, I've set up your MW. However, this text still isn't going to cut it. This source came from planetebook.com, which doesn't state which edition they used, so it may have been a newer edition. However, there are, at latest count, at least four different 1925 scans available at archive!

Of course, I realize that you already prepared your scripts using the copy you linked to. And that should probably be fine, provided that Lynnete is willing to do the final PLs against one of these texts and note any major divergences.
You got it, bub!

(...and please do wait for the new equipment.).
Thanks,

Hi Magda.
I'd love it if you did. We can check. If the song is in the Public Domain, we should be fine.OooThatsNifty wrote: ↑January 4th, 2021, 10:32 amI know music stuff can get dicey when it comes to Public Domain - anyone know if I'm okay to "sing" the Ain't We Got Fun bit in Ch. 5 nearby to the actual tune, or should I just make up something similar?
Sounds good! As far as I can tell, the sheet music was published in 1921 & the folks responsible for it died in 1938, 1941 and 1952 respectively. I'm not based in a Life+70 country, so I think we should be safe?
