Hi Chris -

Saying Adrian spoke up for the next open 5 sections I will get you to Readers Found by taking the rest which I believe if I can count is 10.

If you have any questions about the volume I have requested Linny will vouch for me I hope... I am pretty quick to record especially poems as I like them!

Thank you, Lynda, signing you up.

Here is the pronunciation of the place-name "Toowoomba", which is the subject of one of the poems: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmEkmrE_hvM

I hope you can view this, if not, let me know and I'll record a sound file for you.

Cheers,

Me again - here is a "down payment" on my recordings I just signed up for.... Talking to someone south of you has kept me up late again so I decided to do some recording while it was quiet!

Those were some mighty fine readings, Adrian. :thumbs: All PL-OK. And I like the accent on the final one ... that will come in handy for another poet whose work I have lined up on the slipway and will launch just as soon as one of my current projects completes.

Thanks,

Thank you, Charles, a wonderful reading! Only problem is, the checker is showing errors on the technical specifications.

The bitrate is variable, we need constant 128kbps.
"MP3 Format
~127 kbps (variable) 44,100 Hz Mono"


Also, the volume is too soft. You are aiming for 89dB
Volume
79.1 dB

Understood! Let me hit it again with the proper settings. I reset my PC recently and I think it also turned my settings back over. Thanks!
