Don’t worry about it for now. See if you have edits to make. But the file name cannot have capital letters (the system will crash) and you did not include the section number. Misnaming a file is like having a loose paper at the bottom of the filing cabinet and not knowing which folder it belongs in 8-)

Hi Cymo, Great handling of a chapter that has the most slang and accents in the whole book!

Here are the notes for Chapter 12:
File Name needs correcting - see first page of this project which tells you how to name the file. You can copy and paste from there but put in 12 instead of ##.
bit rate in Audacity needs to be 128 kbps and constant instead of variable. I would google how to correct this or look in "Newbie Guide to Recording" link which is on the first page of this project. Lynnet may chime in here with suggestions as well.

The Db level needs to be within 89-91. I can help with this after you correct the file name and reupload.

at:00 Redo the intro in accordance with the instructions on the first page of this project.

at 3:32 remove repeated words. Here are two links to you tube instructional videos on how to edit in Audacity: 1)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9NuSuWYaWg&ab_channel=PhilChenevert 2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzJ2VyYkmaA&ab_channel=KevinStratvert

at 3:32- 3:43 remove repeated words

at 17:59- 18:09 remover repeated words

20:41 shorten silence

21:32 -21:59 remove repeated words

22:18 -22:20 remove repeated words

23:13 -23:26 shorten silence

25:30 - 25:41 shorten silence

25:51 remove repeat

26:54 remove repeat

27:22 -27:27 shorten silence

28:39 remove verbal stumble

29:53 -29:57 shorten silence

36:03 - 36:11 shorten silence

37:05 add 5 seconds of silence at the end

Although this seems lengthy, once you get used to editing after watching the videos, it is an easy matter to remove those few repeated words and shorten up the silences a little.
Thank you for your efforts in bringing this book to audio!

Fixing the bit rate is simple if you are using Audacity…
When you have corrected the errors and the file name, select “export file”. At the bottom of the dialog box, make sure 128kbps and constant are selected, then export. These setting should remain the same unless you change them, or do something like reinstall Windows.

If you are ever stuck on any of our processes, remember we have a wiki which covers just about everything (see above under where it says Librivox Forum for the Guide for Listeners and Volunteers).There are some very handy videos, but, of course, the one on bit rate was unavailable :roll:
