10'20"

Retakes of mistakes I PL'd on listening again to chapter one: two mis-placed words...(added seamlessly.. cut and paste and envelope smoothing of the rough edges so that they blend evenly).

So to be absolutely clear...I do all that opening announcement stuff at the beginning of all 30 chapters? Really, on a solo read project? Won't the listener have got the point by then?

1 PL OK.

I may not disagree with you but the answer is yes. The (shortened) intro should be at the beginning of each file.
The file name should only include the section number (0, 1, etc.). When you upload a corrected copy of a file the earlier version is renamed and saved and the more recent file is used to construct the audiobook.

e.g. aleriel_01_lach-szyrma_128kb.mp3

OK..Understood. Forgive my persistent confusion. It's one of the symptoms of the strokes. I get muddled much easier than I used to now.

2 PL OK!

The file name had a typo which I corrected. Aleriel has two e's in it (not two a's). Your readings are great and I'm enjoying them. I'm sure others will also.

3 PL OK.

Volume is a tad low but I can fix that at cataloguing time. Can you open the MW to add the chapter titles?

4 PL OK.

I corrected the file name (the number also should have been 04 rather than 4).
Can you enter chapter titles into the MW?

I don't know how to edit in the MW to add the chapter titles. I also have constant trouble finding the upload MW page for my book, as it moves all the time. Any suggestions?

Click on the link below. You may need to login first before you can upload files (In a solo recording you are a BC). Let me know if this works. If it does then bookmark the page.

I clicked on the BC tab after following the link and it wanted my username and pw to login. it was rejected. Did I use the wrong info?

Nigel.

p.s. There may be a pause in progress as I get to grips with a new laptop, OS, mic, interface and DAW software. I think the tech quality of the files should be a lot better though. Bear with me.
