Here is section 51. Please let me know if I need to make any changes.alanmapstone wrote: ↑April 6th, 2024, 10:33 amHi Bobby
Welcome to Librivox
As this will be your first recording I have assigned section 51 to you and will ask you to complete that section first after which I will assign you other sections. Let's take one step at a time.
Good Luck

Thank you for your recording
It is well read and passes all the technical spec checks
Just a couple of PL notes on the text:
at 0.04 say Read for Librivox.org you left off the .org
at 0.39 the text is That culture which makes never wan but you pronounce wan as wain when it should be w-aa-n (meaning pale and lifeless)
otherwise ok!
I have now also assigned you section 52 which you also requested.

PL notes for section 32:VOvortex12 wrote: ↑April 7th, 2024, 10:18 am https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/battlepieces_32_melville_128kb.mp3
Section 32
File Duration 1:58
the text is correct and your recording passes Checker
but a few minor corrections are needed:
at 0.00 the opening silence should be 0.5 to 1 second
at 0.06 say Read for Librivox.org
at 1.49 say End of poem rather than the title

And here is section 35:
https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/battlepieces_35_melville_128kb.mp3
Let me know if you have any more notes!
The start and end silences are still not correct but I have corrected them myself so this can now be marked PL OK!
For section 35:
The text is correct but again the start and end are incorrect. I have corrected this one as well so it can also be marked PL OK!
Please try to get these issues right on future recordings.
