Let me know what you think?

Many Thanks

Jon

Absolutely!

Please remember for section 179 there is an additional ending required to close out the book.

Hello Jon,
Sections 7 and 8 are both PL OK.

You might consider some noise cleaning in you post production phase. If you want to do that here is a video on the process I use. It won't be your version of Audacity but it should still help some. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzVxubRO4gI

I enjoy how you select section which really work for your voice. After hearing this I couldn't imagine it read any other way. PL OK.

Thank you Linny.

Not so good for love poems though. :wink:

I forgot to mention, there's a typo in Coleridge's name in Section 178. I'm not sure if that is of any consequence.

Here is section 122

I also had a go a noise reduction on Section 7. Here is the result. Does this sound any better?

Thank you! I had to type the list and even being careful I knew I would miss something. MW updated.

You reduced the background noise by 4dB. It certainly sounds clearer now. Thank you.

Sections 7 and 122 are both PL OK.

Well, if you insist. I suppose I could stand to listen to more poetry today. :wink:

144 and 173 are both PL OK.

149 needs a little less ending silence. Please trim to ~5 seconds. This one always makes me a bit sad.
