Welcome to Librivox, Kevin!
It would be great to have you record sections 35-39 for this project (Collection of Family Prayers). It looks like you've just passed your 1 minute test recording which means you are ready to go. Don't forget in all future recordings to make any changes that were suggested when you did the test recording (eg: if you needed to amplify, you'll need to do that for every section you submit).

In order to assign a section to you in the Magic Window (MW) of this project, I've entered you into the database of readers. Your reader page is accessible here and a list of your assigned sections is here (you might want to bookmark it). It's great that you're eager to record but many new users have trouble with their first section so instead of assigning all the sections you requested, I've just done section 35. Once that has been uploaded successfully, I would be more than happy to assign you any other sections you would like.Your claim is confirmed - you have one month to submit section 35. Looking forward to hearing your section and have you help out with this project!

Some common questions that new readers ask:
  • Footnotes: They are optional. You can read all, some or none. An easy way to mark them is to say 'footnote' then read the footnote then say 'end footnote'.
  • Quotes: You can mark these by saying 'quote' then reading the quote and then saying 'end quote'. You can decide whether to say quote at all - sometimes it will be clear from context. I'd suggest saying it if the quotation spans multiple sentences.
  • Non-English phrases: We do have to read them. You could 1) pronounce it however you want 2) post in this thread and ask for someone to record it for you so you can either mimic it or splice it into your own recording 3) try Forvo for individual words or the sound icon on Google Translate for a text to speech version to copy.
  • Roman numerals: Read these as their corresponding number.
  • Abbreviations: You can choose to expand these or not to. You could say 'e.g' or 'for example'.
  • Heading numbering: Sometimes books use roman numerals and digits for two different levels of headings. I think a good solution to this is to say 'first, second' etc. for roman numeral headings (I, II etc.) and 'one, two' etc. for digit headings (1, 2 etc.).

Length 3:04

I may need to change the title of 48. I read the heading from the book and just noticed it was rephrased differently in the window.
The Table of Contents gives an abbreviated version of the title. I will defer to the BC whether he wants the title read as appears in the ToC or the full title at the beginning of the prayer.

Both sections are PL OK pending feedback on the title. Good job with the reading and good catch with the title for 48.

Thanks,

Section 35 is ready

Thanks!
Nice job for a first recording. :)

There are just a few changes to make and then it should be PL OK.
  • 0:15 please change "asterisk" to "footnote"
    0:26 conclude with "end footnote" (This is important so te listener will know when the footnote has ended and that they are back to the main text.)
    0:58 should be "covenant" in 'thy promise and covenant," could you please double check and let me know if that is what you have, or correct the recording
    1:36 should be "covenant" in 'thy gracious covenant,"
    please delete close to two seconds of silence at the end so that there are approximately 5 seconds of silence here.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to hearing your other sections.

Thanks,

M
