Section 6 PL Notes: Thanks for this recording! Hope we hear more of you.
00:00 The volume of this track is 80.59dB. LV requires the overall volume for the track (measured by ReplayGain - you can try this tool if you want to check the volume) to be between 86-92dB (with 89dB being the ideal). The easiest way to fix this automatically is to use the 'Loudness Normalization' effect (set to -19LUFS) in recent versions of Audacity before exporting the track as an MP3. Another way to fix it would be to use the Amplify effect set to 8dB. Since the volume is so low, amplifying it sufficiently would increase the background noise a lot. Did you accidentally have the microphone slider lower than intended or were you further from the microphone than you should be?
00:01 Max 1 second of silence at the start of the track please!
00:15 It should be 'librivox dot org' without the 'dot uk'
27:06 We need 5 exactly seconds of silence at the end of the track (as close as you can make it).
For fastest spot checks, you can copy these notes and change the timestamps to the new time so I know where to check.

Since I haven't heard about about this, I have made the edits myself.

Hi I'm really sorry you had to go to the trouble, I was intending to make the corrections and re-upload.
I'll be sure to pick these things up quicker in future and thank you for your initial feedback.
