A triumph of pronunciation! Like Section 27, it needs de-amplifying to meet the Librivox standard of around 89dB.wildlindajohnson wrote:Here's Section 35:

Sounds great, Linda. I look forward to hearing your other sections.
I'm holding off giving a PL OK only because this section is louder than the other sections in this project, which are averaging 89dB. You'll notice the red spikes showing clipping (though I didn't actually hear the clipping).
Best,
Barbara

Funny thing about the red spikes -- I did compress all of them before submission....hmmmm.
I will de-amplify and run thru checker again prior to re-submitting those sections - very sorry for that.

Ok, here are Sections 27 and 35, de-amplified to about 89:
