Thanks, Lynda.
Hi Tom - the reading is excellent however we need more than 2.5 seconds at the end of the recording. Can you please add a couple of more seconds and re-submit?

Many thanks!

Tom -

Here are my recordings that I signed up for today. You can do the MW work :)

Do you want to PL them or should I ask Linny who I think did my other ones?

Section 10: I have a couple of items for your attention:
05:19: repeated phrase "and wearing only..."
07:19: I heard "found" and expected "founded", which has a rather different meaning in this context.

Section 14 is PL OK! :clap:

Thank you!

Thank you Philip! I'm ready to wrap this one up. It was a little more challenging than I thought it would be. I have a lot of respect for people who BC multiple projects at the same time.

Hi Phillip!

Section 15 is PL Perfect!

Section 26 has some blank spaces at 3:54, 4:46, and 5:30 which are abnormal to your reading style. You might want to eliminate them or not... your choice!

Wow Tom - I had no idea this was your first project! Congrats on making it through - well we have a few stragglers but we will get it done yet!

I TOTALLY agree with you - how people can manage more than one of these projects is beyond me - I have enough issues managing my own solo's and various readings plus doing the occasional PL job!

Way to do - I am happy to PL for you any time!

Lynda, Section 10 is PL OK! :clap:

i find the Reader Section Details page a huge help in keeping track of reading and PL assignments. Unfortunately I haven't found an equivalent page for BCing. If there is one I hope a more knowledgeable person will point it out to me. :D
I am happy to PL for you any time!
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind the next time I'm stuck for a DPL or could use a little help.

Sorry about that!

Section 11 is 6:50
Section 12 is 7:27
Hi there -

Your actual recordings were excellent! You have a great voice!

Some feedback on the technical aspect your recordings -

Both sections are recorded in stereo and need to be changed to mono please. This can be done in Audible by opening the recording, changing the setting and then resaving the recording I believe.

As both sections do not start with the .5 to 1 second introduction, please make sure there is .5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of each of your recording. You will need to edit the recordings.

For Section 12. the filename that downloaded was billnyescordwood_12_nye_128kb_1.mp3 - your file name should be billnyescordwood_12_nye_128kb.mp3 (no _1). Please update the filename.

With these things then completed then please re-upload the recordings with their times (which will change with the addition at the beginning of the recording).

Lynda

Thanks for the compliment! That's definitely encouraging.

Oops, apologies on the technical aspects. I've uploaded the corrected versions of sections 11 and 12.

11 duration - 6:50 (I did add silence to the beginning of both but it wasn't enough to round up the overall time, so that has not changed)
12 duration - 7:27

I see that I still have PL notes for these sections. Just wanted to post this again and make sure you knew that I had re-submitted these

Recorded in the MW. Thank you!
Hi Penumbra,
I've seen "MW" mentioned in other comments on this site. I can't figure out what it means.
