If it was just the way you say it I'd leave it alone (per LV rules) but in the last / sixth instance you pronounce it correctly. The correct word is weary but I hear reary.
-Last verse was re-recorded. I tried have over-pronounced the word as "wee-ry" so it didn't sound like "rear-ee".

I checked section 4 (Suicide) and Section 12 (New Cabaret Girl), and both poems are correctly labeled. I played both files and they match.PaulWelford wrote: ↑January 8th, 2024, 12:29 pmThe metronome was in section 12 but you’ve tagged the PL notes for section 4. This would be irrelevant except that the end of 12 now has a more intrusive clicking noise than before so I’m concerned that you’ve mixed up the files in reality as well as in the PL notes.darman210 wrote: ↑January 8th, 2024, 11:33 am- Metronome removed (copied and pasted 5 secs of silence from earlier in the recording).PaulWelford wrote: ↑December 21st, 2023, 1:21 pm
Great. Fabulous reading. As I requested before, please can you change the status in the MW to ‘ready for spot PL’ when you make changes in response to PL notes?
-Saw the "ready for Spot PL" note and corrected it, sorry about that.
Section 4- I had removed the extra "done" and originally labeled it as "ready for PL", then I saw your note about "ready for spot pl", which is why I changed it to that. Sorry for the confusion.
Section 12- I still didn't hear the clicking noise, but I just deleted the 5 seconds at the end. I copied the last 5 seconds from Section 1 (since it's already "PL Ok") and pasted it at the end of Section 12, if that makes sense.

Both are PL OK now thx. I see you’ve dropped some more sections without posting about them so I’ll check them too while I’m heredarman210 wrote: ↑January 9th, 2024, 10:29 amI checked section 4 (Suicide) and Section 12 (New Cabaret Girl), and both poems are correctly labeled.

Sorry for the delay. I'm working thru all of these just now. No new PL notes: all great readings. However I still think you ought to reconsider the length of these sections. I just did Section 26: Shout and out of a 46 second track, only 10 seconds are section content - the other 36 are intro and outro. That's a horrendous ratio to plough through for reader, PLer and listener.

I might simply "group" the poems together based on the chapter (all poems for "Blues", all poems for "Railroad Ave", etc). I still have all of my raw Audacity project-files, so it should ideally be a simple cut-and-paste thing.PaulWelford wrote: ↑March 21st, 2024, 11:46 pmSorry for the delay.

Ha Ha, thanks. I tried to just read that one at first, but it sounded too dry and boring.PaulWelford wrote: ↑March 21st, 2024, 11:58 pmPL OK - fabulous reading, love the half singing, half rhymingdarman210 wrote: ↑March 13th, 2024, 10:02 amSection 21- Ready for Spot PLPaulWelford wrote: ↑March 6th, 2024, 11:32 am

I combined Sections Zero thru 8 (A Note on Blues thru Homesick Blues)
The naming-convention is purposely incorrect and it's currently listed as Section #64 right now, because I wanted to get your feedback in case it's needs additional editing.
