Lynette,
You have an extra track in this file. There is nothing on it. When I mix them it brings your overall volume way down. No harm, just thought you would want to know.
That's not good - let me see if I can fix it.

OK, this is crazy weird. I still have the original Audacity file for ch. 25. It has only one track. But every time I export it to flac, it comes up with 2 tracks. ???

Any ideas why it would do that (and how I can fix it)?

EDIT: Somehow, that chapter had got a stereo setting somewhere (even though the main Audacity window showed it being mono). I found a button that let me split it into mono, after which I could delete the empty track. Looks like it is OK now.

Re-exported and Re-uploaded:

Once Lynette is feeling better and completes her last narrator chapter for v1 would you like me to have chapters 21-25 edited before you PL those? That way you are only listening to the narrator file once.
I had some extra time this week so in case you do want them I edited 21-25. I thought if Lynette needed to make changes she could tag them on at the end of her file and then I could replace them in the edited version.

"Oh, count." said Julie, "will you restore him to us cured of his melancholy?"

Unfortunately Xenablue didn't record the line. It should be inserted in her file around 1:07.
Thanks!

I guarantee you that I am not going to stiff you on my last narrator chapter. :) It would be safe to start PL/editing work on the earlier chapters.

It seems that my vocal chords will be back for my use in about 2 or 3 days, so I'll hit ch. 27 then.
Great!
