Oh, my, I have corrections to do.
They are in my edit box, so I'll boost them out along with a narration project editing but needing the final polish.

I will carry on editing, so it would work best for me if you uploaded your fixes as new files (with "fix" instead of the act number in the filename). Thanks!

Ingen
Act 1
First line: you say "The Perfect Lady and the Lady Bright", but it should be "The Lady Perfect and the Lady Bright"
1.07 Could you read this one again: "Must love needs be powdered, Lie steeped in brine, or will it not keep sweet?"

Act 2
00.30 You say "hast thou dwelt long With my fair mistress?" but it is "thy fair mistress".

Act 3
01.30 The line is "A man, no woman, that hath gull'd the world" but I think I hear "gilded" instead of "gulled".
02.10 I hear "the love of grief" instead of "the love or grief".

Act 4
First line: The line is "and my land, And what I else possess" but I hear "my hand" instead of "my land".
01.00 It should start "For what hap..." but I hear "But what hap..."

Act 5
00.40 "before God and man She was my wife": I hear "she IS my wife".

I had these sitting to upload, I hope this is how you wanted them.
If you need something different, just let me know.

excellent act, and I loved our intro fight

It was fun to chase you around at sword-point

everything sounds really great assembled, I only have a few small cuts to not down where I think the pause is too long for comfort:

> at 1:34-1:36: pause before "Pish! I regard not at a straw the world" can be shortened
> at 9:37-9:40: pause before "Sing it now sirrah" too long
> at 11:23-11:26: pause before "scene 2" too long
> at 21:17: "and my land" - Larry's correction to be inserted

thanks, excellent job. Looking forward to the final act

Sonia

> at 4:41: "The Lady Perfect and the Lady Bright"

> at 4:44: "Meeting the Wife and Widow" - you can cut out "Ingen", as it's in the middle of his speech

> at 5:46: "Must love needs be powdered, Lie steeped in brine, or will it not keep sweet?" - "powdered" instead of "powered"

Here is act 1 for spot PL

By the way, thanks Alan and Larry for your fixes! They are PL OK .

Apart from that, no textual errors, but I have another issue. All of Tomas' Feesimple lines are much softer than the rest, so his voice is not really well understandable, compared to the rest. I know it's a bit of fiddling, but I would suggest checking his lines and amplifying them a bit manually.

Act 2 ready for spot PL

Thanks Rob. Got it done in the end!

Acts 1 and 2 totally PL ok now. Tomas's voice volume excellently tuned up

we're getting there. This will be one of our March challenge achievements (if you have time to edit Act 5, that is

)

aaaand Spot PL ok.

I had a bit of trouble finding Larry's lines, somehow they must have slipped my notice and your time-stamps were completely off by 6 minutes or so

But I found them im the end, and all is perfectly inserted.

Ah sorry, I forgot that those timestamps were originally for Larry: for his original file.
