Looks good to me. Now we need a proof listener. Remember that you can add more sections if you want to split up chapters or something. Just let me know.

Thanks, Phil! And a resounding yes to Leni! I look forward to working with you, Leni.

Hello!

Section 0 is PL OK!

Section 1, PL notes:

- The name of the file itself should be illustratedkeytothetarot_1_delaurence_128kb.mp3. As it is, it has an extra .1 and an extra point. That is important for the correct listing of the files.
- In the very beginning of the file, it says Part 1, Section 1, and I wonder if it should be Section 1, Part 1, as listed in the window. We usually begin with the section, not with the part. The first post says "Chapter", but I don't think that is right either. Whatever is decided for the beginning, should also be said at the end.

But that was all, the rest is perfect!

[philchenevert]

Madmash. Yes, naming sections and chapters is important and should be consistent. You should carefully review the text and decide how it will be divided and then exactly how each section/chapter/part will be addressed while recording. The first post in this thread, the one where you set up the project shows the wording that will be expected. This can be changed of course. If it says chapter now and you want to change it to section you should note t hat. The proof listener goes by what you put in that first post so it is important. Let me know if you wish to talk more about this.
EDIT: LibriVox uses sections as the name of each recorded file. Thus you have just 5 sections. Each section should not be longer than ~70 minutes. Each section has a Title which you will decide on. You will definitely need more than 5 sections but I'm waiting for you to let me know how many. Hang in there, this bookeeping stuff is impotant when setting up a project but once done, it's done.

EDIT2: I have taken the liberty of changing the first post to say "Part [number] Section [number]" since it seems logical and that is the way you recorded it.

Yes, I think changing it to read "Part X, Section X" is logical, as that is how the text is sequenced. I was planning on breaking down the recordings according to the Table of Contents, i.e., by sections within parts. So, for example, I'd have Part 1, Section 1 as one file, Part 1, Section 2 as another file, etc. Does it make sense to do it that way? I didn't want each part to become too long, but I can keep all the sections of one part in one recording file, if that makes things easier (so, all of part 1 is in a file, all of part 2 is in a file -- as long as each is under 70 minutes). Give me whatever explicit direction you see best. I will keep pulling my newbie card.

And Leni: once we hear back from Phil, what should the file names be written as?

Thanks again for all your help -- and patience.

[philchenevert]

If you can follow the index without having to subdivide, that is ideal. So keep that going unless a section does go too long. Let's hope not, eh but even then it is no big problem.

Leni. Note that I changed the first post to reflect "Part one, section one" etc.
The actual names of the files to be uploaded is specified in the first post.

Example filename illustratedkeytothetarot_##_delaurence_128kb.mp3 (all lower-case) where ## is the section number (e.g. illustratedkeytothetarot_01_delaurence_128kb.mp3)

Keep asking questions, you are doing great! (and I love your voice by the way)

[madmash]

Thanks, Phil! I can keep the sections all together without subdividing them, that's no problem.

In that case, I will finish recording all parts of Section 1, and then re-upload that file, with proper naming conventions. I hope to begin recording again sometime before the weekend, so stay tuned!

[Leni]

Hello, friends!

Ok, so we are going with Part X, Section Y. And Phil answered the questions! Waiting for the next parts.

[philchenevert]

The Title for section 1 should be "Part 1, Section 1" That's the way the book does it.

[madmash]

Okay! I am back, and I hope I did it right - if not, please guide!

For clarity's sake, here's what I did:

I couldn't put all of Part 1 (Sections 1 - 4) in one single file, because it would run over the 70 minute limit. So I broke Part 1 into two files. The first file contains Sections 1 -3, and the second is just Section 4.

Both of the above files are titled as "Part 1" in the MW, because they are both from the same "Part" in the text. The Section number (the left-hand column in the MW) proceeds in order, and is not to be confused with the "Section" numbers in the text. I hope that also makes sense.

I hope I recorded the proper intros and outros. I can easily edit these, if necessary. I struggled on figuring out the proper way to say all of this.....probably because the ordering of this text (not to mention its language!) is so confusing. What a pick for my first Solo, right?

Leni, as my PL, forgive my horrible pronunciation of Latin and other non-English names and words. And take your time with these files -- I know it's a lot I just dumped in here.

Another thing.... Phil, I don't know if, as the BC of this project, I need to paste the links from the Uploader here in this thread each time I update with a new recording, even though I already loaded them into the MW. Newbie card again.

I think that's it for now. Again, if I messed up on anything, I believe it will be quick fixes -- just let me know!
