All yours Marcus. Welcome to LibriVox. Ask if anything at all is confusing or does not seem right.

Thanks Alex: Your voice is very nice; you will be a good recorder but please fix these technical things, make another recording and upload another test with the file name test2 or something like that:

1. Your file neeeds to be in mono (one track) it is now in stereo.
2. Your file should be 128kbs, currently it is set to ~124kbs (variable)
3. kick up the volume a bit; we aim at 89db and yours is at 85 db just a bit low.

If you have any questions of how to do these things, just ask. So please upload another test with your file in mono, 128kbs and a bit louder, OK? Be patient, you will be recording very soon. :D

Notes to Book 1:

One little thing... at about 20:01 I heard the phrase "I never knew" I expected to hear "I ever knew"

Other than that, very nicely done.

Many thanks,

Philip

Removed a offending "n".
That was a tough edit.
