[PHILOSOPHY] Ontology, or the Theory of Being by Peter Coffey philc
Section 11 PL OK.
After listening to this one without looking for word perfect, I can understand the wisdom of the prior set up. The subject is so deep it is almost impossible to maintain concentration without following along in the written copy. And I am interested in the subject!

If you're worried about the background white noise, and thinking about using noise reduction, you can use the last 5 seconds of silence you'll leave at the end of the recording for the "Noise Profile". By "silence" we mean when the microphone keeps recording, while we have stopped reading. So the microphone will still catch the environmental room noise, and then you can use that as profile for the Noise Reduction.
I noticed you skipped the parentheses. These are still considered part of the text, so we need to include them in the recording in keeping with the "no changing the text" policy. I could suggest Google Translate for help in pronouncing some of those words, for example the Greek word μεταβολή: https://translate.google.com/?sl=el&tl=en&text=%CE%BC%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CE%B2%CE%BF%CE%BB%E1%BD%B5%0A&op=translate
You can hear the word by pressing the loud-speaker icon below the word. You can also ask for help with pronunciations in the forums, especially in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=40285 It doesn't have to be perfect; just have fun with it!
thank you so much! Question: there are many single words in quotations, should I be saying 'quote & end quote' on each word? currently I've been putting an inflection in my voice for single words & saying the quotations for sentences, not single words. thanks again. rx

Great, thanks. Just to say, I think the sections I've been assigned in the MW are wrong. It says 33 and 34, but I think it should be 34 and 35!

Here are both of my Sections:
Section 34: https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/ontologyorthetheoryofbeing_34_coffey_128kb.mp3 - 26m01s
Section 35: https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/ontologyorthetheoryofbeing_35_coffey_128kb.mp3 - 38m48s
Did anyone else have a sort of existential crisis while recording their sections? I felt by the end like I had never existed, or if I indeed existed...was I even speaking English when I started recording, and was I still speaking English now, or was it all an illusion?......
Good luck PL'ing

That is no problem. And thanks for letting us know.
Section 07:
UPLOAD: Section 07, Pgs. 61-69
https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/ontologyorthetheoryofbeing_07_coffey_128kb.mp3
ironically I had so many 'changes' happen while recording this, I had to relocate space 3 times!
It'll get better but for now practice & done is better than waiting
