A Collection of Family Prayers, by Samuel Palmer- brrot

[JuanitaCunningham]

Thank you for letting me know of the corrections needed. I will make those and resubmit.

However, can you give me a bit more detail on the meaning of "noise level". Not sure if that means background noise or the recording level?

Thanks,

Juanita

I have PLed this because it was my fault for not getting it into the MW that caused the delay.

Section 32 PL Notes:
Great job. You have a great voice and the technical specs are correct. I'd enjoy listening to a longer book in your voice.

• 00:13 Missing "read by" before your name (otherwise people might think you are the author!)
• 00:00 Note (no change needed): There were ID3 tags on this file. These are cleared and re-added at cataloging so you could save yourself some time by not adding them at export time.

This is PL OK.

Noise level means the background noise. If you are using audacity there is a noise reduction feature. Other programs should have something similar.

This section hasn't been proof-listened yet but here are the technical notes for it. Could you resolve them and then re-upload the file before it gets PLed?

• The volume of this track is 81.44dB. 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 8dB. Since the volume is so low, amplifying it sufficiently would increase the background noise a lot. Did you accidentally have the microphone slider lower than intended or were you further from the microphone than you should be?

Nicely read. There are several corrections that need to be made. Most of them deal with meeting the LibriVox specs.

• filename needs to be corrected. The filename convention is listed in the first post. In this case it is: familyprayers_##_palmer_128kb, where ## is the section number. In this case it is "10". The correct filename should be familyprayers_10_palmer_128kb

• volume please increase by about 8 dB so the volume is close to 89 dB, the LibriVox ideal, you will probably also need to reduce the background noise as it is on the higher side of acceptable currently and with amplification of the track, it might push the background noise over the limit.

• please add about 0.5 seconds of silence to the start so that there is between 0.5 and 1 second of silence at the start

• 0:16 please delete "section 10 of" before "a collection of family prayers"

• 0:20 please add "by samuel palmer" after "a collection of family prayers"

• about 4:06 and 4:10 the following text is repeated "Let our hearts be sincere in consenting to his covenant;"; please delete one of them

• 8:02 please add "Give us this day, &c." after "and thv will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

• please add a little under 2 seconds of silence to the end so that there are around 5 seconds of silence at the end.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
