Section 4 is well read

Oof, poor woman

The volume is a bit soft here too. You might be able to increase input volume next time you record? (saves the work of amplifying

)
Please amplify this recording by 10. Please ask if you have questions.

Everything else is good!

I am not sure the volume on this is loud enough' though I can only get it to amplify to 86.6

Please do let me know your thoughts.

Hi. My brilliant son has made the corrections (I hope) and we are now sending chapters 3 and 4 right back to you. Please let me know of any hints or corrections before I begin the next 2 chapters.

Greetings.

Here is chapter 15, length is 8:46.51

After recording, how do we measure the decibels of the audacity recording before sending it off to you?

Thanks.

dbr (and son)

Thank you for the edited files and the new one

Yay for sons that help!

There are a few different ways of measuring dB, and it is just a matter of preference which one to use. All of them require downloading first, though.
- Checker -- my personal favorit because it checks technical settings etc as well.
- Replay Gain Plugin for Audacity (there is in the section Volume 2) ). I haven't tried this plugin, but many swear by it.
- MP3Gain -- also works perfectly well in my experience

Please keep asking questions when you wonder about anything

Thank you very much! I'll update the MW when I get home, and spotcheck within a few days

kathrinee · Post by **kathrinee** » March 8th, 2017, 10:01 pm

Sections 1, 2, and 3 are PL OK after spot-check

The volume in section 4 is much better, but still a little soft. The file needs compressing (that squashes the highest peaks) and ampilfying by 3 or 4. Here is a video explaining how to compress. If you/your son have questions, please let me know.

Thank you, dbr!

Section 5 is well read, April

The volume is a little bit soft. Please amplify by 2 or 3. You might have to compress the recording first (that squashes the highest peaks, allowing us to amplify more). Here is a video that explains how to compress in Audacity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ3lOTDsN6c.

Everything else is great
