      You got it almost right. The "o" in both Robert and Plomp is a 'short o' rather than a long one. You need to pronounce this small o like what the vowel in 'crumb' sounds like.

          I don't understand any of that. I need a vocaroo recording to hear it

                  With a "P".

                          Yes, the second and third one. Now do the same 'au' for robert and you're a native dutch speaker!

                            I don't think it's right yet:

                              I think it needs more oomph.
