I probably won't be able to make it today. The good news is that my husband starts a new job tomorrow. The bad news is that I'm going to see a lot less of him, so I need to take advantage of this evening!

Sorry to hear that you won’t be there, Stephanie. We will be taping this one, so you can watch it later.stepheather wrote: ↑November 6th, 2023, 8:05 am I probably won't be able to make it today.

Great meeting everyone!
The recording will be going up on YouTube in the coming days/weeks for anyone who couldn't make it. We talked about Michele's "duplication trick" for BCs, the new Audacity 3.4 and how it works on a Mac and in Windows, and proof listening and changing meaning (are you a "read along" or "just listen"?) And we segued briefly into covers and the Librivox wiki, and shared some brags.

Duplicate trick explained:
I just tried Lynette's "right click Page 1" trick to open Page 1 while keeping a later project page open. I didn't pick up on that at first. When a BC is working within an LV project to update the MW, this "trick" is shorter than "right click duplicate webpage tab" then navigate to Page 1!
Brilliant!
A BC can use this when project files are pouring in, and the MW can been kept open at the same time on another tab and filled in bit by bit by toggling between pages.

That is what I have been doing. But, once I have the forum on one page and MW in another, if I have a lot to do, I resize each page so I have them side by side which saves a lot of toggling. Same when I set up a new project. I have keep my projects on a spread sheet, so I resize that and have it side by side with the MW for easy copy and paste. Oops, I guess this isn't the forum to discuss this.msfry wrote: ↑November 7th, 2023, 5:14 pm Duplicate trick explained:

Anyway, thanks to Winnifred for hosting and for all the good comments and ideas!

Today, May 26, is my 11 year anniversary with LibriVox. What a journery!
Some stats: 2,300 projects, 335 as BC, 500 as DPL, 1850 as reader.
More to come
To resize and side by side, you have to open each page in a new window, or "move tab to a new window", not just a new tab.silverquill wrote: ↑November 7th, 2023, 5:28 pm But, once I have the forum on one page and MW in another, if I have a lot to do, I resize each page so I have them side by side which saves a lot of toggling.
Yes you can float sheets from separate programs side by side on your screen and toggle between them. I'd be interested in seeing your spreadsheet.Same when I set up a new project.

I could talk briefly about my Dramatic Reading workflow, which I believe is a bit different from others'.

Sounds good, loon.
Let's see who else we can round up to share interesting LV techniques.
Okay, Winnifred, thanks for the heads up.

Dane Scott, well known voice over coach, has been offering LV'ers free online coaching sessions for awhile. He has agreed to join us this Monday, introduce himself, answer questions, maybe ask for a volunteer. I had a 15 minute session with Dane earlier this year, via Zoom, and it made a difference in the fullness of my audio.
