I am using Windows 10 64bit, Audacity 2.4.2, and a Blue Tiger Elite bluetooth headset. You can catalog me as Susan Alexander. The 1 minute test is at https://librivox.org/uploads/tests/test_anglophileabbey.mp3.
Your voice is nice, but you will need to fix some technical specs and then make another test:

1. Your bitrate is 108kbps variable; we need 128kbps constant
2. Your volume is too loud at 97.8 decibels; we need it to be between 86 and 92 decibels (shoot for 89)
3. There is a lot of background noise, like some machines running. Probably a fan or other device near the microphone. turn off as much as you can or move to a quieter room if possible.

So, please fix these things, make another test, call it TEST 2, upload and put the link in this thread where I will see it quickly. Ask if you need any help. Here is a video on setting specs https://youtu.be/l00VDvGTieg
Thank you for the advice and your patience as I learn! I've waited for a "home alone" moment, exported to 128kpbs constant mp3, and turned my mic decibel down to 89 (it's close with the checker at 90). Here's the file!

:thumbs: :thumbs: That is fine and you have the official OK to record lots and lots. Did you post anything in Listeners Wanted forum?
