PL notes section 18:

~4:54 repeat "inquired the... inquired the devil"
~9:53 repeat "in the... in the treacherous"
Before you re-upload, could you cut the end silence to 5 seconds, please? It's not excessively long, but as you have other edits, you might as well 8-)

those were pretty easy edits! I hope the 5-second silence is right now. I read somewhere that Garage Band does weird things with the ends of recordings, but I think I managed to make it cut of in the proper spot.

Thank you. I'll try and check those today or tomorrow. The 5 seconds isn't absolutely critical, so don't fret about it. It's just that as you had other edits, I thought you may be able to fix that too. If that was the only thing, I would have ignored it.

Could I claim section 2 please?

I see Welsh words and Shakespeare, which I must say are my strong points :lol:

Ch 18 - PL OK!

Ch 23
The file is a bit on the quiet side - it is 84.6 dB and we are looking for close to 89 dB. As you have some peaks, you will not be able to amplify the whole file, so you should either remove the peaks, then amplify or use the compressor effect https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fKYYj6HMZU

~8:35 repeat "long distances traverse... long distances to traverse"
~15:45 stumble "to des.. to designate the winter king"

I can! I finally will have some time this weekend to do some LibriVoxing. someday I need to get Audacity set up on my laptop...
is there a way to do similar editing in GarageBand to fix the volume issues? I'll look into it some more tomorrow and see what I can figure out.

PL Notes--

~8.29, a repeat at "salw a Gwrach y Rhibyn"

~14.39 "Part 5" sounds a little echoey and quieter than everything else.
