Kylie,
This is a lovely reading. Your longest one yet.

The volume is too low. Please amplify by 5.

16:36 – editing error (a little double of the w in with) - "O Wallace, what nonsense!" she cried, with a little nervous laugh.

Please trim ending silence to 5 seconds. It’s just a little over but since you have the other corrections I figured I would comment on it.

The file number should follow the section numbers. Before uploading your revision please change the number to 15.

If you have trouble with the amplification and use Audacity this video on compression may help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fKYYj6HMZU Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for the video on compression. I had not used that feature until then and I believe it was successful in my recording. Also, I reamplified the recording, but it would only allow me to do it a little over 2 dB more.

Kylie,
The section is now at 87.1dB so it worked! Sometimes you may need to repeat the compress/amplify process.

Thank you for being so quick with the changes. Spot check PL OK.

Kylie,
I enjoy your voice for this book.

Section 16 is PL ok with the exception of the volume. Overall volume is too low at 85.9dB - the beginning being much lower than the ending.

Thank you so much!!

Here is the reamplified section.
