Haven't had a chance to listen this through as I have to keep to the dinner gong (so to speak). It sounded alright stage by stage though.

Sonia,

I've uploaded the corrections for 4.4. Hope it sounds OK now. :) Also, I can edit 3.3 for starters.

Craig have you named both files the same ? Because then you have overwritten the first file

No, thankfully. I uploaded the same file twice. Should be there now.

all right thanks :)

Tony, I am checking your scene right now, I am decreasing some longer pauses and there were two stage directions at the wrong spots, but you will re-check this all in the final assembled act, so I will correct those for now.

Act 1 is fully assembled. Good job Craig and Tony ! It sounds really great. I especially loved the scene with extremely jealous Leontes and quite composed and pleading Camillo. Also the final scene with Polixenes and Camillo was a good one. Well...they were all good LOL

Here it is, for Tony's last perusal:

Craig, your scene is PL ok as well. I will shorter a few longer pauses later when I assemble Act 4, but the rest is fine. Thanks for helping out.

Tomas: Camillo is PL ok now, and so I also do my bit and for now claim the Shepherd's scene, which is probably a monster to assemble :shock: Don't expect it today.

That's a great funny accent you put on when you're pretending to be a man, Sonia. I did like the interplay between Tomas and me the best, not least because there wasn't any. And we're not at all alike, whatever women say. Couldn't think of anything I wanted to change, except for the relationship between Melania and Leontes.

Will consider other edits on the morrow.

LOL well it wasn't so much to be a man, but to be a Bohemian man :mrgreen: I thought the Slavic accent would fit, but then I didn't realize Tomas would come up with his Italian accent and the outcome is this funny travesty. Great start though.

what do you mean there wasn't any ? :shock:

I don't like this comparison !

Thanks for your checking, so you're saying this is PL ok, correct ? You have nothing changed, so I don't need to re-check ? Great than we have one more Act finished :9:

edit: I just saw you marked it PL ok. Great !

Here is 3.3. If it's not very smoothly edited, I apologize in advance---today my Audacity is acting up for some reason. There's a weird 5-second delay every time I hit the play button, so much of it was copy and pasted without much listening in between.

To explain why the Clown isn't more traumatized by Antigonus being mauled: he's rather a simple thing, and has never been exposed to human deaths before. So the only point of reference he has is a wild animal being killed, and since he sees these things on the regular, to him it's not quite as shocking as most others would find it. :P And Bohemia is such an odd place in and of itself. I think the people living there are really not comparable to any other earth-dwellers we know of. :lol:

P.S. I'll take 5.3 as my last act.

that's strange. Could be you have exceeded your memory in Audacity and need to clear out some old files. :hmm:

you mean more like Middle Earth ? :mrgreen:

Do you mean my system memory? I have plenty of space on my hard drive, so I don't think so? Maybe I need to restart my computer or something. Closing and restarting Audacity itself doesn't change anything. :hmm:

ehm no what I mean is the memory inside the audacity program for your files and corrections. Especially those "correction folders" take a lot of memory (not for the computer but for Audacity).

Try checking, next time when you press "record", if you read for like two or three seconds, all of a sudden you will see on the very bottom (underneath the window with the running waves) a sentence popping up, can't remember exactly, something like: "Recording time left: 5 hours 25 minutes". With each recording the time will go down. So I suppose if you never delete any backup files, Audacity may not record new material anymore. I noticed when I cleared my huge Hans of Iceland folder, this sentence jumped from like 5 hours left to 6 hours left, so it really is influenced by the files.

But I'm not a tech specialist, maybe it has nothing to do with it. Only I clear the files I don't need anymore, just so my "time left" will not go down to 0.
