The reader speaks well, but used long pauses frequently. I modified the original recording to compress the silences substantially. This shortened the recording by about 40 minutes. There are still enough pauses and the reading sounds more normal to my ear. Now……..the…….audio……..has………no………long……..pauses.
· Length: 7 hrs and 45 mins (was 8 hrs and 26 mins)
· Release date: 12-20-10
· Publisher: RNIB Talking Books
The source for this came from jodindy’s upload from 2021. You can find that original including the long pauses here: https://audiobookbay.lu/abss/lost-horizon-1933-james-hilton/
I tweaked the audio using Audacity ‘compress silences’ but I do not remember the setting parameter now.

Cool. Thanks for your efforts. I started Jodindy’s upload, but stopped in frustration. :)

Thanks for ridding annoying 40 min worth of pauses.
March 26th, 2022
Thanks so much for your work, from the sounds of it the long pauses would have driven me mad!
March 27th, 2022
Okay, now I want you to upload all the silences strung together, brimming with suppressed emotion, shocked speechlessness and pensive wonder. It’s exciting - new - the next step beyond ASMR.
Thanks for the loving care.

Now I want to know why the long pauses…? I get a mental picture of an old boy in a comfortable chair reading into an old school microphone and slowly nodding off, a long stick with a nail in the end appears from stage left when the bored sound engineer finally notices…

Thank you so much

I’ve run into this before as well, with old audiobooks mainly, back when they were released on CD. I think there must have been an audiobook publishing house or something that used to like this style of long pauses. For the audiobook I had in mind, it was a long pause literally after every sentence.
Glad these long sentence pauses are no longer in vogue.
