Hi Lynnet:

Sorry to hold you up, section 11 is read I just have to edit it. Two new house guests for the moment putting a spanner in the works (2 adult cats). I hope to get to it this week and have it to you shortly.

Hi and welcome to Librivox!
There are a few things to do before you get started.
You will need to complete a one minute test - this is to check your specs are up to Librivox standards, and if not, you'll be given hints on how to remedy that. http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test
Please post your test in the Listeners Wanted forum (see the dropdown at the bottom of the page) for the speediest response. Waiting for the OK may seem tedious, but can save time in the long run.
You will also need to be added to the catalog of readers. I will add you using your forum name, but if you prefer your real name or a pseudonym let me know. We can also link to a personal blog or website. Be sure to read the first post - all the info you need is there, but if anything doesn't make sense, just ask. The wiki (see the top of the page) has bundles of info too.
I have just assigned you 16 for now. Once that is complete, you can claim any other open sections.
Lynne

Section 18 PL OK

There is a lot of echo. You may want to adjust your recording area.
Recommendations:
1) Don't use a room that is too large or has high ceilings.
2) Don't record in a tiled room (kitchen, bathroom)
3) Add soft furnishings e.g. curtains, cushions, quilts, even thick coats
4) Add sound-absorbing tiles to the ceiling -- this isn't necessary, but is an option

Sorry about that, there's a lot of construction work going on in my neighbourhood, the only spot that is not flooded with noise has echo in it
