Hi there, thanks so much for your interest in this project. The last section was claimed in the post above yours, unfortunately, but I will certainly contact you if I orphan a section.

Hi cadastra and Mayah92, I have already made a start on section 6. Should I still continue?

Hi Noel! Yes, please do continue. I don’t know how that section was assigned to two people, but you claimed it first. I will let Mayah92 know. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Lovely reading, Andrew! Section 3 PL notes:

11:20 Repeat ("if the trick be well done" x2)
34:06 Repeat ("amazes me" x2)
35:06 Repeat ("a" x2 in "a little fever")

Also, the file is 86.1 dB, which is too quiet (87-91 dB is acceptable, and we aim for 89 dB). To adjust the volume in Audacity, select the whole recording. Click Effect > Amplify. In the Amplification box, enter the number +2.9 dB. Verify that the file is around 89 dB using Checker, then re-upload using the same filename. Post in this thread when the file is ready for spot PL. Thanks so much!

Hi Richard,
Wow, you sound like a professional narrator! I only have a few PL notes for Section 4... First, here is a repeat at 39:55 ("extremely gay and... and wonderfully neat"). Also, the volume of the file is too loud at 92.3 dB (87-91 dB is acceptable, and we aim for 89 dB). To adjust the volume in Audacity, select the whole recording. Click Effect > Amplify. In the Amplification box, enter the number -3.3 dB. Verify that the file is around 89 dB using Checker, then re-upload using the same filename. Post in this thread when the file is ready for spot PL. Thanks so much!

Hi

Section 4. Thanks for the heads up. A little while since I submitted a reading and had stupidly forgotten to use the checker. The repetition was an attempt to suggest hesitation on the part of the narrator but I was taking a bit of a liberty with the text so I've taken it out.
