Hopefully the filename is OK, I kind of had to come up with one on my own but I copied the edited-filename from the Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm DR.

Oh, yeah, and you can stop listening at 1:29. That's where the editing ends, and the rest of the time it's just the narrator- and I already PLed that.

Thanks!

I can certainly do that. You know you can just look in the MW right? To check if a Chapter is ready to edit? I can still do it though, no problem. <smile>

PL notes for Chapter 1.

@ 0:21 The sentence ends with a dash (-) so i would sound like bhavya is being interrupted, I think that was the author's intent. But there are almost a full two seconds of silence before the questioner comes in Can you remove just enough time, to make it sound like an interruption?

It's your choice is you want to fix that. It's only 1 little thing and I don't want to be picky. Thank you! <smile>

Oh yeah, sure! That's a super easy fix. The only thing is, for some reason I deleted the .AUP files from my computer and only kept the audio track (now why on earth did I do that?) so I need to redownload those files. But it's not a big deal, I can just download the completed file instead of editing all over again.

I didn't know I could just look in the MW. I mean, I did, but only 1 chapter was ready to edit...never mind. I don't know what I was thinking- I guess you'll note it yourself in the MW when a chapter is ready to edit, I just assumed that more than 1 chapters were ready to edit, but they weren't put in the MW yet.

Thanks!

Corrected chapter 1, ready for spot PL:

Edit @0:21. It should sound fine now- I'll just go and change the status in the MW, though.

[JayKitty76]

Hi Elijah,

Just a reminder: Please don't forget to change the status of the chapters. (Chapter 1 still said Ready for PL even when you had put PL notes for it.) Although, I do know it might have been because you said it was optional- you may have been holding off on changing the status for that reason.
I'm honestly not trying to be mean or bossy or anything, it just helps if I know at a glance the status of a chapter.

Thank you and God bless,
Rachel

Rachel,

The .aup Audacity files take a lot of computer memory. Unless you are using a Label Track you can save the working files as .flac to save computer space when you are editing.

Using the .mp3 files is also okay. Technically there is a loss when using the .mp3, but it undetectable to most human ears unless the .mp3 has been the process of saving, editing, and re-opening the files has been done many many times.

Oops sorry. You don't sound bossy.. I need to do my part. I will make sure to change it's status when I PL next time <thumbsup>

Chapter 1 is PERFECT! I love it! PL OK! That's exactly the interruption I was looking forward to hearing. Never wanted an interruption as badly in my life! <smile>

Thanks! Glad to hear you liked it! I cut the silence to suit my own ears, but wasn't sure if it would sound OK to you.

Thank you!

Oh, I didn't know that! Thank you!

What I do is I download the MP3 files by clicking Save Target As, then go to Open Folder and drag the MP3 file into Audacity, thus converting it into soundwaves that I can edit. I actually don't save the Audacity files since, like you said, it usually takes up too much space, so I only save the audio track. That way I can just download the .mp3 file again if I need to edit it.
It seems to be working for me, though, so I'll see what happens.
Thanks for your feedback!
