I'm travelling right now, so I cannot record. But I could listen! I would be happy to sign on as DPL for this project--but might take me a bit to catch up on everything already in the MW. :)
Welcome to the project and thank you! Added you as DPL! No worries about taking your time, we are nowhere near complete anyway. :)

Thanks, Lucretia! So good to have you! :9: I was already starting to think that I'll have to PL myself, but could not find time for it. Enjoy the stories!

Hi Kevin--Very nice job on the recordings--thank you! Just a couple of things to edit--

Section 63:
At ~12:41 the portion of the text in red is omitted from the recording: "Then they sent one of their company on land, who presently returned, and brought a great platter full of venison, dressed by themselves; and they caused him to eat with them: then they made him reverence, and departed,…

Also, I show that volume comes in at 92.3 dB on the recording, which is just on the high edge of acceptable. Since you will be uploading the file again anyway, could you please reduce the volume by -3 dB to get it closer to our goal of 89 dB--?

Section 64:
Just a small thing on this one. Please edit to say "End of Section 64" in the Outro as specified in the instructions in the first post of this thread. That's it.

Upload the corrected files, post the links here in this thread again--and I'll take another quick look at them. Let me know if you have any questions.

(Note to Kristine--I was going to add Kevin's User ID to the MW for Section 64, but I don't think that I am able to do that for you. :) EDIT: Just remembered how it worked, so added his name. Amazing how much you forget if you step away for a couple of years! )
Kind regards,
Lucretia
