8 seemed a tad loud, but the checker says it's just under 92db.

for section 9, I heard a bump at 0:21. this section is also missing "end of section 9" at the end.

The Perch (1:38)

Here are the corrected uploads. I decreased the decibels by about 2 on Section 8 and added the "End of section ##) to the end of each. (Missed that part of the instructions the first time lol)

Apologies for the delay! I need to rerecord section 15 (I rerecorded one bit and it didn't match, alas, so I will rerecord the whole thing) but here is section 16.

Duration 2:14

Thank you!

Well, it is nearly impossible to match just a section or phrase, and we all understand that. We just do the best we can. But, if you are not happy with the results and want a redo, that's okay.

Well, the thing that needs fixing is that you haven't been assigned to record this section!

It is very important to follow proper procedure if you want to participate in a group project.

First, request or "claim" a section. Then, wait until that has been acknowledged and assigned before recording and uploading. This keeps everything flowing smoothly and avoids confusion for everyone.

In this case, we might be okay since this section actually is still open.
But I do need to know exactly how you would like to be listed in the LV catalog as this seems to be your first recording.

Hi! I just finished my test recording. It's the first 1:53 of Section 24. Please let me know if there are any things that I need to change, and I'll go ahead and record the whole section. Thanks!

Oops! I'll be sure to request it first next time - sorry!

And "Victoria James" would be great. Thanks!

Did you post this in the Listeners Wanted forum where it belongs, and did you get a report back on it yet?

Shoot- I tried so hard to find and read all the instructions for how to do this stuff, but somehow missed that it needed to be posted on Listeners Wanted. Will do that now.

Ah! Well, let's hope for the best.

I know a lot of us have been dealing with outages of various sorts. Mine have not lasted to long.
I work from home, and just about a half hour before signing off, the power went out. I'm sure the customer I was talking to thought I hung up on him. :shock:
