oh please don't worry, it takes a lot more to frustrate me ;) you have been very diligent in quick edits. :thumbs: and I appreciate. It was a complex and big role, so such few mistakes are not that bad. And now I also hear "worth" YAY. Both perfectly edited and now all Hermione is PL ok.

Thank you so much, now you can lie back and wait for the finished play to listen to your performance.

And I'll see you in the next Racine maybe ?

Have a nice weekend

Okay! So.. the following bugs in the first full take of Orestes' lines have been fixed:

It reads "Orestes, Son of Agamenon, as read by Richard Jaspering" instead of "Orestes, read by Richard Jaspering"
The word "resigned" has been replaced by the word "regained" in a spot edit.
I amplified the entire work 10db
The words "end of act 1" have been omitted.

actually "read by" instead of "as read by" would have been better (that's what I said in my previous post). But you have the important bit in "son of Agamemmnon", so it's fine. Todd may cut out the added "as" probably.

The other bits are correctly excellently, so your first section is now PL ok. :thumbs:

btw it's best to keep the exact same filename with each upload. The old file will then replace the new one in the MW. ;)

Thank you, and looking forward to the next acts. We are only waiting for our Orestes, then this play can get wrapped up !

Todd: Act 1 is ready to be assembled :9:

ah I love it when people say "ye gods" or "great gods" in classical drama :9: it's such a cool expression to use and be emotional about :lol: well done, Richard, I love the insistence here with which you plead your cause to Hermione. (Spoiler: it will not end well....)

I'll mark it PL ok, but need to ask a big favour for your future files: please leave much more space between your quotes. Here you barely have 1 second, for our long-suffering editor, this is making his task unnecessarily difficult, if he doesn't have enough silent space to fiddle with to copy/paste all the parts into the masterfile. I would suggest minimum 2 seconds, 3 or 4 would even be better.

No need to change this time, let's not fiddle with it anymore. But for the next file then, please. :)

Act 2 is ready to edit :9: :9:

Thank you

Oh I have no doubts this is not going to go great for Orestes! lol Yeah, I feel the set-up around me and uh.. yeah. It doesn't bode well.
Sorry about the lack of space between the darn clips! I'll do better next go-round. Go-rounds. Goes... round. xD

wow wow wow, yes all actors are worthy of the classic dramatic verses by Racine. :clap: Wonderful job, all of us !!! And great editing, Todd.

Both are definitely PL ok. In Act 1 in the voice credit, you did not cut out the "as" in "as read by" at 1:40. But it's optional and probably too picky. I leave it up to you if you want to go back and reupload.

Thanks

:shock: wohoo indeed, unleashing our angry emotions here much, aren't we ? :lol: This guy is about to pop an aneurysm. Well, spurned feelings, I can somehow understand him. And he will be eternally scorned by unsympathetic Hermione, no matter what he does.

Absolutely PL ok. Great acting out :thumbs: Thank you, Richard.

Todd: Act 3 ready to edit :)

Aneurysm is right! Jeez-oh. lmao Please let me know if there's anything audio-wise I can fix on my end, I tried my best to fix any and all clipping. It was a little more difficult finding an aural happy medium than I'd imagined, given I was screaming my death throes! Thank you very much. :) Here's my final lines:
