Hi tammybt,

Great job with Chapter 13. :clap: I really enjoyed your narration.

Tech specs were also good; I just had two items.

1. Going forward, when posting the link to the recording, could you also post the duration of the file. It helps us to know that we have the proper file, and that there were no issues with the file during uploading or downloading. I get 9:02 for this chapter.

2. Silence at the beginning of the file should be no more than .5 to 1 second. This file has 5 seconds, so if you could cut off 4 to 4.5 seconds, then re-upload the file, that would be great (the file duration will change). The new file will have the same link name (the previous file gets backed up). Then post again when it has been uploaded. Thanks.

Hope to hear more from you.

Hi OnLam

Good job; enjoyed your narration! :thumbs:

Chapter 18 PL notes

Tech specs. The volume was low at 80.2dB (below the 87dB-91dB LV recommended range). If you can raise the entire recording by 9dB, you should be in great shape. I tested it in Audacity, and the increase did not cause any clipping.

02:17 Stumble: "Through the thick plate-glass windows …"
04:39 Stumble: "It projected a slight distance from the sides …"
11:37 Stumble: "Maybe something besides your ship …"

Going forward, when posting the link to the recording, could you also post the duration of the file. It helps us to know that we have the proper file, and that there were no issues with the file during uploading or downloading. I get 13:09 for this chapter.

If you have any questions, please ask. I hope to hear more from you.

Thanks Don.
I shall raise the volume and fix the few tumbles. The fixed file will then be uploaded again (and with information on duration) :)
