Hello,

I'd like to return Section 52 please. I'm not going to be able to do it.

Thanks!

This section hasn't been proof-listened yet but here are the technical notes. Could you resolve the technical issues and then re-upload the file before prooflistening?
  • We need 5 seconds of silence at the end of each Librivox track (or as close as you can make it). Currently, it's about 7 at the end.

Section 34 PL Notes:
  • 00:00 There was some hiss on the recording. It might be the result of a low input volume from the microphone which you have subsequently amplified to hit the Librivox volume range, in which case you might want to look into increasing the source volume (moving closer to the microphone or making sure the microphone is at full volume). Another solution you can apply is noise reduction. This will reduce the hiss after recording but it does degrade the quality of the audio. Be gentle on the amount (I'd say a maximum of 6dB reduction but less is better) - many people overdo it. Another option is a noise gate.

I couldn't figure out why the number was wrong in the MW until I figured out that the sections must have been dragged and re-arranged. So it should all be right now.

Section 62 PL Notes:
  • 05:16 Volume drop. Did you apply a compressor here before you edited out a click?
  • 00:00 Note (no change needed): Watch the filename. It should be lawsfromheaven_062_arnot_128kb.mp3 instead of lawsfromheaven_62_arnot_128kb.mp3.

Hi,

I corrected the 5 seconds at the end, sorry about that! Here is the corrected version of section 51. Thanks

Hello. My apologies. Here is the edited version.

  • The volume of this track is 85.63dB. LV requires the overall volume for the track (measured by ReplayGain - you can try this tool if you want to check the volume) to be between 86-92dB (with 89dB being the ideal). The easiest way to fix this automatically is to use the 'Loudness Normalization' effect (set to -19LUFS in 'perceived loudness' mode) in recent versions of Audacity before exporting the track as an MP3. If you use RMS normalization, set it to -21dB. Another way to fix it would be to use the Amplify effect set to 3dB.
  • We need 5 seconds of silence at the end of each Librivox track (or as close as you can make it). Currently, it's about 165 at the end.
