Hey there, I'm back after a long time with the same hardware but in a new home.

Thanks in advance for checking!
Is there too much echo?

Cheers,
Mel

Welcome back Mel

There is a bit of reverb, so if you can deaden your recording space more that would be good. But it's not bad enough to fail, so you are good to go.

Happy narrating!

Hi Mel,

You meet all the Librivox standards, so you're good to go! I hear a bit of echo, but it's not all that distracting. If you're worried about it, you can find hints on improving room echo in this Librivox wiki:

Happy reading!

Cheers,

sjmarky and I must have hit send at almost the same moment! Glad we agree.

Thanks a lot for your feedback!

I already added curtains to the walls around the desk. It was much worse. I'll check if foam could work better but I'm glad it's not urgent.
