Read Prompts and Submit Recordings
Before you Begin Recording Prompts
Turn off any other audio programs on your PC (i.e. music players, audio editors, etc.)
Position your mike so it does not pick up your breathing. While recording, try to minimize any non-speech noises (i.e. lip smacking, taking a breath, ...) or background noise. Don't
exhale until after you have clicked the Stop button.
The black box near the bottom of your screen
will display the audio waveform of your
recording. Please record a test recording to ensure your microphone volume is not too high or too low.
Recording Prompts
For each prompt line, please record your speech as follows:
click the Record button,
pause for half
a second,
Read the corresponding prompt sentence,pause for half a second, and then
click the the Stop button.
If you make a mistake, click Record again to re-record your prompt.
Once you have completed recording all ten prompts the Upload button will activate. Click the Upload button to upload your entire submission to the VoxForge repository as a single zip file.
Repeat the process (multiple submissions are encouraged!)

Could you please give a link to the file listing the prompts? And to the upload function? I can't see anything of the kind.

I have set pulse audio to record from my USB mic (Sennheiser), and Sound Recorder in Ubuntu can record and play back my speech. However, the applet above does not seem to record the prompts I read in. Also, the Java applet during playback doesn't have any spikes.

Could you possibly make the user profile (i.e. gender,dialect, language) a forced option?
I'm trying to automatically compile a database of profiles, but not all user's have given a language, making it very awkward.
If the details had to be entered for all fields, it would really help. I'm happy to share my databaseonce compiled, see more details at http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/authors/my_fileexchange

You might seriously want to consider having the java applet set some sort of cookie or something to retrieve the username and other settings to ease multiple submissions from the same donor.
Can't Record

I can't record using this app. I can confirm the firefox fix of closing tabs which allows me to record/playback, but nothing gets recorded and, consequently, nothing is played back!
"Click here to upload audio file". Make sure it's in WAV format!
You don't really need people to log in either. Just log their IP address and show them that you're logging it by making it a read-only field as part of their submission.

I'm used to reading punctuation for voice dictation out loud - do you want me to read them when submitting samples here?
