OPEN [DR] Stand By For Mars! - thw

[Inkell]

I'm wondering if you have some sort of noise gate in your recording setup - set to reduce the record gain when you're not talking. If so, it might not have enough time to bring the volume up again in time when the first word is something very short like "I".

No idea, I haven't really messed with the settings besides changing it to the Librivox criteria, I'm not very knowledgeable about this stuff I'm afraid.

Anyway here are some more-

11: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/standbyformars_tom_11.mp3 (6 mins, 0 secs)

Also I do have all the lines recorded now, should just be a case of editing them unless I find something very wrong and have to scrap a recording

A fine point on chapter 11 near 5:13 - could you re-read "Why - I am" as "Why - I am" (in answer to the question "Is one of you Cadet Tom Corbett?")

Everything else is PL OK. Thanks thanks thanks.

Could I claim the Cabbie in Chapter 11, and John Bailey in Chapter 14? They're in different chapters than Dr. Dale, the character I've already read for. And I can make the voices sound different from hers. That would fill up all parts for Chapter 14.

Thanks,

Thanks Winnifred, the parts are yours.

[GregGiordano]

Are you allowing multi-part claims? There are about 3 or 4 parts that do not conflict with the part I have already recorded.

Please advise!

Multiple claims are OK as long as you don't have two characters in the same chapter.

May I claim Joe Bernard - Chapter 11 ?

Thank you!

May I claim Joe Bernard - Chapter 11 ?

Sure you can. Since you're buying supper in the cafe car I'll just order seconds right now.

Please include "Al Dixon and Joe Bernard read by Greg Giordano" for the credits.

[GregGiordano]

Here are all lines for Joe Bernard (includes credits for both Al Dixon and Joe Bernard as requested by Loon):

Loon, of course you can order seconds, I wouldn't miss that for anything!

Take care,

Greg

PL OK, thanks.

We all made it through a few-hour outage at LibriVox (and archive.org, whose bandwidth we piggyback on.) It's good to be back.

Thanks, loon! Isn't it amazing how much we miss something (LV) when we can't access it!

Oh, how was that second piece of "steer" for dinner?



Take care,

Greg

Just right.
Now it's PL OK, thanks.
