Hello, Rennis. We indeed have a DPLer! When in doubt about it, take a look at the window in the first post. When the project has a DPLer, it says so, right above the list of sections: "This project has a dedicated proof-listener who will listen to all sections:". Projects without a DPLer do not have that message in the window.
Oh, sorry about that: I now see where that sentence is in the Magic Window! I'll be more careful next time!
Thank you for letting me know, Leni!
PL notes:
*Beginning silence is around 1.5 sec, so it'll need to be trimmed. (Somewhere between .5 - 1 second is ideal.)
*Background noise is high (~44 dB). If you look at the file in Audacity, you'll notice that the beginning silence still looks fairly bumpy. That'll work great for a noise profile, then be sure to select the entire file for the actual noise cleaning.
*For the intro ~0:26 I noticed you have "Chapter 13 continued". To be consistent with the rest of the project, it should be 'Section 41, The Yak, The Bison, The Buffaloes, The Tamarau and Anoa, The Musk-Ox'
Please make the corrections and repost here, then I'll do a final PL to make sure everything is good. I hope this doesn't look overwhelming to you! And I apologize for not getting back with you sooner! You really do have a lovely voice, so I hope you'll be doing a lot more recordings! Lots of things will keep getting easier with time and experience, and it won't be long before you forget what all you went through getting to that point.
Thank you!
Thanks for the notes and the compliment! I'll get right on the changes!

You did well on those, but I do have a few changes for you to make yet.
Section 41:
*Volume is in range at just over 86 dB, but I'd suggest amplifying 2 dB to where it's more like the others. (There's a spot that'll clip if you amplify much more.)
*I still hear enough of a buzz in the background, that it'd be good to do another round of cleaning. I tried it out in Audacity to see what should work for you, and if the top number were 14 and the others at default, it should make a big difference in the buzz. But do whatever feels comfortable to you. (Did I confuse you with the number before? )
Section 42:
*End silence is now at 7 seconds... Please trim it to ~5.
The rest of the edits turned out really nicely! The buzz is cleaned up in Section 42, and in Section 41 the intro is perfect!
And I just realized that you opened the section up to be re-claimed once the two months had passed! Sorry I didn't reach out earlier to confirm I was still working on it.

Yup. I did. That is the standard practice, as stated in the first post. I will contact Diana, if she has already recorded, I will give her preference, since her claim is the one active now. If she still hasn't recorded, we will be happy to have it completed.
