Chapter 3 PL notes
-0:21 take a listen here: I’m not sure if you use a “click” to mark edits while recording and can’t decide if this is a click or the final t in And’t.
-1:02 repeat – Held out her arms to receive the child
Thank you, Linny.
The 0:21 is my rendition of And't. No change made.
Fixed the repeat at 1:02.

Updated version for PL: https://librivox.org/uploads/icequeen/mildredandelsie_03_finley_128kb.mp3
3 is spot check PL OK!

Amy, new time is 18:08

I'm not sure what the problem is with my speaker. I've tried fixing the recording. Let me know if it's better, or I can try again.

Chapter 7, edited.

It's a little better. I would say go ahead and mark it PL OK.

Did the video help at all? I know it's an old version of Audacity.

-10:29 repeat – I can fit it tonight, said Mildred.
-Please extend your ending silence to ~5 seconds.

The volume has a wide range. There were times when I hurt my ears until I turned down the volume. Have you considered compression followed by amplification? If you are interested, here is a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fKYYj6HMZU
Sorry about the incorrect timestamp. :oops: Thanks for finding it.

I would like to read chapters 11-13. I'm very excited about this as it will be my first recording. Plus, I am a huge fan of the Mildred series. :clap:

Kylie Goodfellow is fine. I submitted my 1 minute test earlier today and there were a couple of things that needed to be adjusted, which I have already fixed. I resubmitted the test and will let you know as soon as I get the final ok. Thank you so much! :D

Perfect!

I'd recommend waiting until you get your test okayed so that you don't have to re-record anything.

The chapters are yours!! Enjoy!
