Hi Tatiana
I have done a PL of Section 2. There are some noises 0:45 and 0:54, and also a ping at 3.29, perhaps a mic bump. Everything else ok.

Reuploaded this at 12:13 in length and let me know what you think. I used noise reduction and there is still a slight click in the word "idleness" around 0:49 but I wanted to know if this was too distracting before I re-record part of it

PL Notes
Preface

General feedback:
Good job, especially for your first section ever! You have a nice voice, nicely clear diction, and a comfortable, steady cadence which the listener will find it easy to follow.

Beginning has over 1 second of silence. Please trim to between .5 and 1 second.
End has only 1.5 seconds of silence. Please extend to 5 seconds.

2:36
“MS” means “manuscript” and should be read as the word.
p. viii, near end of the long paragraph.

4:15
MSS=manuscripts
p. ix, right after the long list of names


No need to change anything on this for this section, but you have some occasional plosive breath sounds throughout that you could probably get rid of with a little change in your mic placement. Try putting your mic slightly to the side of you, so your voice is reaching it from an angle, rather than speaking directly into it. Take a listen to this handful of spots to see what I’m talking about, then experiment a little.

PL,

Thanks for the feedback. I will do another recording with your corrections shortly. I especially appreciate you telling me what "MS" means. I tried to figure that out on my own but couldn't find the answer.

Forgive me. I just touched up the file and uploaded it again. Sorry; I know this is the fourth time I've uploaded my section. The latest version should be perfect.

Hi again Tatiana, this is great, PL OK for Section 2. No need to rerecord now.

I'm just starting to PL section 3 now and it seems you have improved the background noise even more for that one, so whatever you're doing is working.
Thanks, Ma B

Sorry, please could someone clarify what you want people to do with the footnotes on this book. Section 2 should end with 2 footnotes from paragraph 1 on page 16 but these haven't yet been included. I assumed they were to be ignored but then I just saw the note in the magic window that says "including footnote" for section 2. Is there a standard LV way of dealing with footnotes?
Thanks

Notwithstanding my query about footnotes (above), I have PLd section 3. Tatiana could you check there is a full 5 seconds of silence at the end please, I think it is a little short. Everything else is OK, so I will do a final PL when you reupload it.
