Hi Jake,

Great first recording! I really enjoyed the character voices you did, you clearly have a knack for doing those :D

I have no notes on the reading itself, however:
- The volume of the recording is a bit low, at 83.3 dB. We aim for 89 dB, with an accepted range of 86-92. You'll need to amplify the whole recording by a few dB so that you're in this range.
- You need to include 5 seconds of silence at the end of your recording, right now you have only 1.

If you can make these two edits, you'll have succesfully completed your first LV recording! :clap:

Did you by any chance upload the previous version again? This one has the same volume and no extra silence at the end (and doesn't have a duration of 9:44).

Thank you, that's good now--however, when you upload a new file, please do upload it with the same filename. We need all files to follow the same naming convention. So instead of adding _2 to the name, just use the same name; the old version will get renamed on the server if you do so.

Tricia, can you fix it this one time, or should Jake reupload with the correct file name?

Put the new URL in the Magic Window, and I'll fix it (easily) at cataloging time.

Ready for cataloging, then? :)
