PL notes:
32 needs some noise reduction. It's got quite a bit of background noise. (I grabbed a noise sample from 8:18, and it seemed to work well.)

Track 32 (8:26):
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/caxtons_32_bulwer-lytton_128kb.mp3
Could I claim Track 34, and if I get the track, should I say when chapter 8 ends and where chapter 9 starts? Thanks!

Thanks!
When chapter 8 ends, just pause a couple seconds and say "Chapter 9". Then at the very, very end just say "End of Chapter 9."
(If you're headed into chapter 9, it's assumed you've ended chapter 8.)

Section 32 doesn't sound like you did noise removal.
Section 33 - Needs amplifying. To get to ideal, it'd be about 3.5 dB, but it looks like you can only do about 2. Amplify as much as you can.

Track 33 (same length as before):
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/caxtons_33_bulwer-lytton_128kb.mp3
I amplified it by 2 decibels like you said, let me know if there's anything else I can do with it.
Track 34 (6:47):
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/caxtons_34_bulwer-lytton_128kb.mp3
I'd like to claim track 35, if possible.
I'm not sure what else I can do for Track 32, I already tried running noise reduction once . Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Did you run it correctly? There was a spot that didn't have much noise; perhaps you only did the second step (the running of noise reduction itself) on that one spot.I'm not sure what else I can do for Track 32, I already tried running noise reduction once . Do you have any suggestions?
33 PL OK.
34 - Volume is too low; needs to come up about 6 dB. You will need to run compression on your file to squish the spikes enough to amplify.
Video on compression: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ3lOTDsN6c
My default settings are as follows:
Threshold: -17 dB
Noise Floor: -40 dB
Ratio: 3:1
Attack: 0.2
Decay: 1.0
NO checks in the check boxes
After compression, amplify by 6 dB.
I'll put you in for 35.

Well, it appears I was using Noise Reduction incorrectly all this time
Anyway, here's part 32 (8:26):

Part 34 (6:47):
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/caxtons_34_bulwer-lytton_128kb.mp3
Part 35 (9:12):
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/caxtons_35_bulwer-lytton_128kb.mp3
Could I claim part 36?
Also, I thought part 32 sounded a little funny, so let me know if I should record it again.

32, 34 PL OK
35 is too quiet. Needs compression and amplification (and possibly noise reduction after that).
There's a small program the spouse of a LibriVoxer developed to check the tech settings. If you're game, you can download it and use it to check the volume and other settings. It's here: https://cgjennings.ca/projects/checker/
The volume information is in the Information tab. We aim for 89 dB, but anything between about 86 and 92 is good. It also checks noise.

Section 36:
Needs compression and amplification, and probably some noise removal.
