I know these may not be regarded as vehement errors, but three audio files in the book "Beethoven, A Character Study" by George Alexander Fischer" are littered with buzz and contentious background noise. I go through some books here and the audio is usually pretty on point. But I really couldn't finish this book due to the buzzing and stuff.
I recover and digitize cassette tapes for my family and they have a lot of the same issues. So I attempted to cleaned up the audio for these three book files as best I could. I don't know if it is possible to review them and see if they are fit to update/valid at all??? I've provided an audacity, wav, and mp3 file for each.
And of course, it is quite possible I'm an idiot and this not the correct place to post this, there is a form somewhere I missed, or some rule I didn't read but I figured I would just try.
Any would be greatly appreciated...

Whew, chapter 7 was especially bad, wasn't it? Usually if there's some background noise, we let it go, since we prefer that readers read rather than have studio-quality recordings. But these do seem to warrant some clean-up.
I'll proof-listen these (make sure there's nothing added or removed from the files) and replace them. It might take a couple days, since it's not top priority. But then, you've been waiting 3 weeks for a response to your post, so I guess there's no hurry.
