Thanks! We happened to have a small railroad event out of town since Wednesday and drove back Sunday. Missed a lot of the "return from vacation on Monday" traffic. :)

Section 11 is PL OK, but I wanted to mention how different your edited/re-recorded portions sounded to the rest of it. Edits don't have to be perfectly seamless, of course, but they were a little jarring. Did you switch microphones mid-stream?

I actually recorded it in two batches then I did my edits at a different time so they did not sound perfectly the same. I am more than happy to do the whole passage again....

Good afternoon Tricia -

Sections 13 and 14 ready for PL -

Section 13 - https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/canadatheempireofthenorth_13_laut_128kb.mp3 - 20:17
Section 14 - https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/canadatheempireofthenorth_14_laut_128kb.mp3 - 21:28

Let me know about Section 12 please - I want them all to be of similar quality... going out to play in the sunshine now as in Vancouver the sun can be fairly rare :)

If you're willing to redo the whole thing, I won't stop you! :lol: Or maybe try to do the edited parts again - perhaps a third sitting will sound more like the first. Your choice. (I did PL OK the section, but since you're willing...)

HOLD UP. Not 12, but 11. I haven't listened to 12 yet.

Section 12 - the sound is... bad. It's very tinny, and hard to understand. :(

13 is better, but still doesn't sound good. It's got some loud sounds, but is very tinny.

14 is the best of the lot. I'm OK with the sound of 14 (although in a quick check, it has plosives).

Have you started doing something different with the recordings? They don't sound at all like the same microphone as in earlier sections.
