Thank you!
I'll assume that you just missed to "p3" on the end of the file name when you copied it, and put it in the MW Ready for PL

Here is 20 for spot PL, with the pseudo-word "orch-iss" confined, hopefully, to the dustbin of history ...

Perfectly superb editing job Eva!

This is now PL OK!

Hi Larry .... the MW was never updated for this.

Taken care of!

I'll ask Jo to put you in as DPL since Ava has just been a no-show, then we'll both have access to the MW.

Thanks Suzanne! ... congrats on your first recording ..and 13 minutes at that!

Very nice job!

I've marked this PL OK, however I have a couple of comments. First the volume is borderline low at 86 dbs. This is the bottom end of our acceptable range of 86 to 92 (and we prefer to be at 89) Just something to watch for on future recordings. Second, there are sections where your recording has very little background noise and sounds great, but in others there is a loud hum that sounds like a fan running. To see what I mean, listen to the recording from 10:40 to 10:55 where the background noise is great ... then at 10:56 you will hear it pick up as if something was turned on. While it's not so bad at to require correcting, it could use some noise cleaning if you want it to sound better. Also something to watch for future recordings.

Thanks Annylee!

Both of your sections, 22 and 24 are PL OK. Wonderful readings!. It's the first time I've listened to your recordings ... hope it's not the last!

"In respect of mere luxury, it may be doubted whether there is not as much to be said for a bad memory as for a good one. "

Brilliant.

Very nice reading Larry.

PL OK!
