Ok, I think i figured it out looks like the original file was too large split it during a pause and that gets the whole thing. Here is section 11a and 11b

Thanks! Just one more small tweak before I mark it ready for PL. Can you reupload one more time and add an underscore '_' between delamare and 128kb? Thanks

Hi Liquidsilver! Welcome to LV, and congrats on your first few recordings. You have a very pleasant tone. There are edits needed. I have listed the timing by each, and if completed in the same as the list order, the timing should match up. I know the list looks long, but you'll see that most of them are silences that just need to be edited down to smaller timeframes. Once edits are complete, please reupload the file (under the correct name) and post in this thread (with the new run time) so I can do a quick spot check.

Ending - Please shorten silence after "End of section 11" to 5 seconds. Currently it's closer to 45 seconds.

Around 54:07 - heard "After all, one does not ignore..." should be "After all, one does ignore..."
Around 33:00-33:05 - please shorten this longer period of silence.
Around 29:17 - stumble on "...was once a wood of birches..."
Around 29:13 - repeat of this in "this macadamized road"
Around 27:50-27:55 - please shorten the longer period of silence.
Around 26:42 - heard "out of her little bottle-case casement.." should be "out of her little bottle-glass casement..."
Around 26:27 - repeat of "So drastic was the relation between the valley-village and the hill that for upwards..." (Sounds like the second take is the one you'll want to keep)
Around 14:26-14:37 - please shorten the longer period of silence.
Around 12:28 - please omit "of" before "That's as it may be."
Around 8:45 - 8:52 - please shorten this longer period of silence.
Around 7:58 - heard "...there are one or two of their own ledgers.." should be "there are one of two of their old ledgers..."
Around 7:05-7:11 - please shorten the longer period of silence here.
Around 3:35 - 3:55 - please shorten this longer period of silence.
Around 3:08 - missing the paragraph starting with "Maunders turned his long, large palish face..." This falls after "Anyhow, Bettie will like it." and before "Amateur".

Intro - Running long around 8 seconds. Please shorten to .5 - 1 second total.
Cheers, Claire

Ok, so I think Liquidsilver is probably MIA at this point, having not logged onto the forum in over a month. I've decided to take a stab at editing this one myself, including recording the missing sentence at 3:08. I've tried to make it not sound too different. Hopefully it works. It's ready for PL now.

Great! I've looking forward to listening to it. Will get started.
