[Complete]Lotus Buds by Amy Carmichael - dlo

[AliceJane]

I've finished recording section 7 of Lotus Buds. I'm still a little unclear if I've done all the required steps, but I think I successfully added the IDtags (except for the number of the section - I didn't see the "title" field in my list of options). I ran it through the Checker program too. I've uploaded it, and here is the link:

It is 14:35 in length.

Please let me know what I should do next.
Thanks!

I've marked section 11 PL OK although there aren't quite five seconds of silence at the end. I count four. I don't know how serious that is. It might be a good thing if you add one more second there.

I think 4 seconds is OK.

Thanks! Our PL will check your file soon and let you know if anything needs fixing. You don't need to worry that much about ID3 tags, because they're now added during cataloging.

[AliceJane]

Good to know. Thank you!

Could I please read chapters 4-5

[AdeledePignerolles]

Certainly! First, though, please do your one-minute-test. It's just to make sure that all your technical settings are right. Also, what name would you like to be credited under in the catalog? It can be your real name, a nickname, a pseudonym...I can also link to a personal URL if you'd like.
Let me know if you have any other questions!

Section 7 PL Notes

Lovely reading, but the end needs some trimming. The text ends at 12:34, and you've said "End of 7" immediately following it. Then there's a long silence until you say the correct closing "End of Chapter 7" at 14:25 followed by nine seconds of silence. Please cut out the "End of 7" closing at 12:35-36 and the following silence up to a second or so before the correct closing. Then the silence after "End of Chapter 7" could be trimmed down to five seconds.

[AliceJane]

Thanks for the instructions. I believe I fixed the problems and have uploaded the newer version. The link is...

...and is 12:44 long. I used a USB microphone with Garage Band on a Mac to record.

Thanks for screening!

[AdeledePignerolles]

Thanks to both of you!

[pattymarie]

Thank you, Alice Jane. Section 7 is PL OK.

[pattymarie]

Section 12 is PL OK except that it has 10 seconds of silence at the end where only five are needed. I don't know whether that's serious or not, but it's easy to snip out five. If Adele says it's o.k. to leave them, I'll go along.

[AdeledePignerolles]

I'n not sure so I'll fix it and mark it PL OK.

[pattymarie]

Here's the new section 12, Adele.

Uh-oh. The Magic Window doesn't like me. It says I don't have permission to enter that area.

[AliceJane]

I would like to read chapter 8 of Lotus Buds, entitled "Others". Is it still free?
Thanks,
AliceJane
