I apologize, I should have let you know which part instead of just mentioning it! Here is the quote that should be color coded as a King of the Awgwas line.

“Never before," he cried to Ak, while his voice trembled with rage, "has an immortal declared himself the master of the Awgwas! Never shall an immortal venture to interfere with our actions again! For we will avenge your scornful words by killing your friend Claus within three days. Nor you, nor all the immortals can save him from our wrath. We defy your powers! Begone, Master Woodsman of the World! In the country of the Awgwas you have no place."

Chris:

Section 18 is very nicely done! PL-OK!

Linny--I see that Chris has already posted the specific line, but it occurs on p. 3 of the text for Section 18 just over half way down the page.

Many thanks,

Philip

Oh, goodness. Thank you for catching that. That was certain,y a main line. I changed it on my word document a week or so ago and somehow missed updating it on the google doc version. I’ll take care of it.

No, I'm sorry. 1-5 are for the completed chapters. This is a dr (dramatic reading) where readers select a character to read and then we edit them all together. The character list starts a little lower.

Here is the Section 1 lines for Ak. The length of the recording is 5'47.46".

Don:

Section 10 is nicely read. There are two reasons that I did not mark the Section PL-OK.....

1. The end silence is 2 seconds instead of 5. That is not as critical for this file as for others because it will be incorporated into the finished project, but I wanted to be sure you had this info for your future use.

2. The silences between lines (where narration or another character's dialogue comes in between) should be about 3 seconds before and after. In this file, with a couple of exceptions the silence is less than that...although I think still long enough for the editor to manage. However, Linny can let us know about that.

I look forward to hearing Ak in the mix with the other characters.

Many thanks,

Philip

Don and Philip,
5 second ending is not a problem since the parts files will not be in the final catalog.

As for space between lines, yes, I definitely need much more space. When I edit I rely on visual more than audio. A quick listen to on the opening line of a segment to make sure it's the right one and then I cut it and paste to the main track. Once I have all the lines in place then I do a full PL.

With the current spacing I would need to listen to the entire track throughout editing making the editing process even longer. I'll go through and add spacing to this track but please be certain to leave more spacing on the other chapters. I'll go ahead and mark this section PL OK.

Sorry for the space problem. I will definitely leave more space on the next segment.

I am a bit perplexed by this section right here though, from section 1:
"We will!" exclaimed the sweet nymphs, proudly. But Necile said nothing. She only folded Claus in her arms and kissed him tenderly.
You've scripted this "We will!" to be spoken by Necile, although the narrator says that she's pretty much the only one who doesn't speak here. I went ahead and recorded it anyway, but I tried to use a slightly different voice.

Before you record please complete you one minute test. The instructions are found from the link in section 3 of the main post. I will also need to know what catalog name you want listed.
