Thanks Jeremiah! I will let you know as soon as I can. Do you have a time duration for your recording? I like to make sure that I have the whole file, sometimes strange things do happen.

Don't be hard on yourself because your recording was great! You have a radio-type voice, which is so much fun to listen to. The best advice that I can give is to have fun with your recordings, and to look at the Need Help forum to see all the bits of advice for improving your recordings. There are a bunch of things that can be done to make recordings better, and most of that information can be found there. Chapter 7 is PL OK!

Chapter 8 needs a couple of edits.

The volume is too high. It is currently at 95.2 dB, and we need it to be around 89 dB, with a range of about 87-92. If you could reduce the volume by 6 dB, then the volume would be just about right.

There are two stumbles. one at 2:26-:27 and the second one is at 7:46-:48. Those just need to be cut out, and everything else is great!

Hello, so sorry about the mistakes. I'll be more careful in the future.

Also, here is the updated version. I subtracted the current amplification by 6, but I'm not sure if I have the current dB right now. Please let me know if I should fix the amplification. Thank you.
