I would like to try Section 21 - "Luxury", if it is still available (I see it open on the table, but also note a user claimed it in February).

I'm new to LibriVox, but have passed the 1-Minute Test. My username (orbitalowl) is fine for use in the catalog.

Welcome to Librivox. Section 21 is yours (the previous reader did not submit a file within 2 months of the date of claim, so it was ‘orphaned’)
All the instructions you need are n the first post, but please ask if you have questions.

Hi Lynnet,

I fixed the title, compressed and amplified. Thanks for sharing those links they were very helpful.
Here it is https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/blackdog_07_coppard_128kb.mp3

I'll check back if there's any further PL notes.

Best,
Libia

The overall volume is too low. Please amplify by ~16dB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_z607awyLw
However, since some parts are loud (probably where you patched in corrections) you will probably find you can't do this without clipping and will need to compress the file https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ3lOTDsN6c
You can check the specs of your file using Checker https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Checker We aim for 89dB, but 86-92dB is usually acceptable.

When you re-upload, please be sure to include the leading 0 in the file name _07_

Ch 15
The volume is a little high. Please amplify by about -3dB. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_z607awyLw

Great reading.
