Maria,

Here is section 5. I ran it through the checker app. It is slightly under-volume at 84.7db. However, I hesitate to use more amplification because there are already some pops. I tried a little noise cleaning earlier, but thought it was worse with the noise cleaning, so this one is without noise cleaning. Please let me know if I need to rework this any. I expect I will get better with time and practice. I enjoyed reading it.

Thank you,
Katherine

Hi Katherine,

Nice job! It does need to be amplified some more. You do have a spike at around 8:45 that would prevent much amplification, so you either need to de-amplify the spike or use the compressor option. I think if you do some light noise cleaning it should be fine.

Also, at the beginning the silence is too long at over 3 seconds - it needs to be no more than 1.
And at the end the silence needs to be 5 seconds - it is currently only 2.

This one is much better. I fixed the time at the beginning and end. I did a little noise reduction. And the checker app now says it is 88.8 dB. Let me know if it needs more.
Thanks

Thank you, Sandy ~ nice job!

There is one thing that needs to be fixed. There is about 3 minutes of silence at the end of the file - it needs to be just 5 seconds. If you could snip most of it off and reupload, that would be great! :D

Hi Sandy,

Could you try uploading the file again please. It appears that this is the same file as before.

The 3rd time is the charm, how I hope I got it this time :cry: . Not that I'm making
excuses, but this is the 1st chapter I've done and I'm still learning to operate my
DAW.

Section 1 has been orphaned. Looking for a reasonably fast turnaround please!
