As there is no DPL yet I have reviewed your poems for you. They were really great to listen to! You have done a wonderful job of recording them and I can hear your passion when recording which is great!

Here is the feedback for each section -

Section 2
1:18 – mien – should be like meen – rhymes with queen in sentence below
2:49 – I heard untreating eyes – should be entreating eyes
Please leave closer to 5 seconds at the end of the poem.

Section 3
56.5 – heard sweetest – should be sweet

Section 5
1:38 – heard wildness – should be wilderness
2:14 – heard Her dreams – should be He dreams
Please leave closer to 5 seconds at the end of the poem.

Section 6
Your volume is just a bit below the range at 85.9 dB – use Amplify to get it closer to 89 dB please - if you need help just let me know!
Reading is perfect.

Section 7
Your volume is just a bit below the range at 85.9 dB – use Amplify to get it closer to 89 dB - same as above :help:
There are 2 more verses that were not read on page 25 that need to be appended to the end of the poem please.
I am not sure if all the bracketed portions of Part 3 need to be whispered - I can see it for the first verse however I generally do not whisper bracketed sections - I just read them normally as whispering can be hard to understand or hear. It is up to you though as the reader - I was just sharing what I generally do. :)

So if you can make those minor changes then post the links and new times Carolin will be able to update the Magic Window and someone will Spot Check them so they can get approved.

It was a pleasure listening to your work. :thumbs:

Hi Carolin!
Love getting to do some scary stuff right before Halloween!
https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/housesofsin_01_osullivan_128kb.mp3. 1:27.61
https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/housesofsin_10_osullivan_128kb.mp3. 1:52.48

I put the standard intro for the first poem. The MW said prelude but the poem isn't titled. If you want the shorter intro I will fix it.

Thank you,

Thanks, Lynda.

20 still has 1 error at 4:47. It says gibs, when it should be gibes. Other than that 1 everything is corrected in this one.

NinthProphet, I PLed yours. First as a personal note let me say, "Dude, I could listen to you read a grocery list!" Love the voice. End personal note. :lol:

Now to work,

All 3 are missing the closing. If you refer to the directions: 'At the end, say: "End of poem. This recording is in the public domain." and leave five seconds of silence.' Silence is right, just need to add in the words.

For 15, Borgia in the title is mispronounced. It's Borjah in pronunciation. G is soft in this one. Not a major thing, but in the title it really stands out.

In 16 as you noted mien is mispronounced.

Carolin, I'll DPL, if you don't mind, since I've done so much of the PL already.

Okay, a recap so we know where we are.

12 and 27 have not been submitted yet.

14, 15, 16 have notes.

20 is being fixed now.

All others are PL OK.

So we're almost done.

Fixed parts 14, 15 and 16

I did splice in new audio with old, but did my best to blend it in seamlessly - let me know if it's noticeable to anyone with a better ear/equipment! Any critique is welcome, and appreciated :thumbs:
