no feathers in this one
Quite right - no feathers this time :)
Just a small edit please.

At 5:15 instead of "pieces of birch", I heard "peaches of birch" :peach:

I've uploaded section 26 for PL, duration 13:51.

Thanks, Jim! In case you can't tell, I'm really enjoying myself. :D

For anyone interested, I moved the mic much further (elbow-length) in front of me, turned up the gain, and trusted the noise reduction feature to sort it out. Since that worked so well, I can use Compressor and Loudness Normalization together to even out the volume.

Well done - straight to PL Okay :birthday: :birthday: :birthday:

It seems like you are getting a good handle on using some of the effects. I use a macro for post-production that first runs a high-pass (a.k.a. low cut) filter at 100hz to eliminate rumble, then normalization, compressor, and loudness normalization.
