nice choir of whippers-in

thank you, Alan. I am curious how Todd will merge such long speeches though.

Well, I guess I'll find out soon.

PL ok

thank you, Jim, for all these. You bring quite some urgency into your whippers and musicians.

This will all sound so annoying later on assembled. The whole scene is quite hectic.

I have a few short notes to correct still:

Here is third whispers: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessofelis_thirdwhispersin_1_128kb.mp3

> for the voice credit: it is "whippers-in" not "whispers"

Here is third musician: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessofelis_thirdmusician_1_128kb.mp3

> from 0:05-0:13: this first part is done by the whippers-in, you can cut it here

Here is Lycas: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessofelis_lycas_2_128kb.mp3

> for the voice credit, could you please say the entire description, which you can find in the MW: Lycas, attendant on Iphitas, read by Jim Locke

The rest is excellently performed. Thank you again for the fast turn-around. This will push us quite near the finishing line.

thank you, Jim, now all PL ok.

And that gives Todd a lot of work. All acts are ready, except Act 5 and one voice credit missing for Act 1. (oh I remember 2 acts were already done

)

I still can't get it to work. Save Link says it is an HTML document. Could you upload it again so I can try again?

(I downloaded a buncha other stuff today without trouble, but I've had 6 unsuccessful tries on this one.)

Thanks, Todd

Thank you - that works now. Now to get all those musician and whippers-in choruses lined up properly....

Thanks, Todd

Act 1 is also ready for PL. Missing one voice credit, but the rest is ready.

Thanks, Todd

just had a listen and it sounds great. The merging of voices works fine, especially when you take snippets from each and let them fall into each other.

But also the entire group speeches are still understandable, though a tiny by loud for my taste.

I have only one major issue with this act:

> from 0:49-0:57 / 8:40-9:19 / 9:44-12:15 / 15:23-15:51 - all of Alan's Arbates speeches have a very disturbing background rustling. I wonder why I didn't hear it the first time around, maybe I didn't use earphones then.
I tried Audacity's noise-cleaning and it works if you take a sample from the noise, because it is a very regular sound, so it also cleans it up inside the speeches.
I took a sample between 8:50 and 8:51 and it worked well, the sound was completely gone. Strangely enough after 15:51 (even in mid-speech) his sound was better again, the noise disappeared

I wonder what it was, it sounds like static, very regular.

The rest is fine, but for listening pleasure I think it would be best to clean these parts manually.

Thanks ! The next act needs to wait for tomorrow, I don't think I can do more today...
