I thought that might be the case. Ok, I'll just spot check the non-volume/silences notes.ej400 wrote: ↑November 11th, 2024, 3:05 pmThank you for the feedback on these. 2 small notes: I haven't been correcting any volume or silences at the end of sections, as at the time when I'll edit everything together, I will have to complete a final pass on the volume and have the set silences on the files etc. Thank you for checking on those anywayWinnifred wrote: ↑November 11th, 2024, 11:56 amAnd here's your feedback on those!ej400 wrote: ↑November 11th, 2024, 8:13 am Jasper Chapters 10, 11 & 12 are ready for PL:

Thanks!
Chapter 10: The volume is sitting right at 86 dB, which Checker thinks is low, and I notice the background noise is a bit more noticeable just at the start, before and after Jasper’s first line. Otherwise, all is fine and I’ll mark this PL OK.
Chapter 11:
- At 1:01, I hear “…and he looked so mean and cringging…” with a silent g on cringing. But cringing is actually pronounced crinjing, with a soft g. I don’t think listeners will know what the word means the way you’ve pronounced it, so I suggest you fix that.
Chapter 12:
- Your closing silence is only one second. It might make editing easier for you if you bump that up to 5 seconds.
- Your volume is at 85.8 dB, so below the minimum.
- At 7:35, and just after there are a few knocking noises in the background. The ones in the silence that follows this line don’t matter, as you can edit them out, but you might want to do something about the line “It goes up here, don’t it, with the rest?”
- At 8:02, I hear “Yeah, I see” but the text reads “Yes, I see.” You might want to fix that, as Jasper never says “Yeah” (nor do any of the other characters.)
- From around 8:30 to the end, there are repeated buzzing sounds in the background. You might run noise reduction on just that section, as some of them run through the speeches.
I'll come back and do the spot checks once you've made those changes.
- Again, your closing silence is only 1 second. I suggest you bring that up to 5 seconds.
Cheers,
Thanks,
Winnifred

Elijah, do you need some more help with PLs? They seem to be piling up again, and several aren't even in the MW yet.

I should be okay, but thank you for offering! I was planning on getting to them tomorrow as well as updating the MW and scripts again

MW & Scripts have been updated.
I have not found any files to be lost from the outage either.

Awesome job with these! Great work! Percy Chapters 18-22, & 24 are PL OK!
Chapter 23 PL Note:
@ 1:40 Missing lines: "And they had such perfectly elegant times" and "Oh, you can't think, mamma!"
Chapter 25 PL Note:
@ 0:31 While you are editing the other file, could you please add a 5 second pause before the line "and so is Van."
Thank you!

(files)
I have just a couple PL notes although, please don't be alarmed, there aren't many and these should be easy fixes as they are relating to some pauses needed between lines. The reason for this, is when it comes along to editing and putting these together, it makes it much easier for the editor to see the gaps and know where the line is for the narrator's next spot (or another character's). Similar to pausing between sentences for lines, pausing for lines like "Oh dear" [5 second pause] said Dick "that is a lot of grass!"
I would recommend, while editing, to double check with the text and line to make sure the pause would be placed at the appropriate time, as some of the timestamps placed aren't perfect to the spot the pause is needed. I also recommend starting from the end of the section, because as you edit along, the time stamps will remain the same. If you begin from the beginning, the next time stamp will be 5 seconds later, etc etc, (because you would be adding length to the file).
Chapter 18:
@ 0:06 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:24 3-5 second pause needed
Chapter 22:
@ 0:22 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:42 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:53 3-5 second pause needed
@ 1:00 3-5 second pause needed
@ 1:09 3-5 second pause needed
@ 1:22 3-5 second pause needed
@ 1:30 Missing line: “I shall give Ben one of my kitties—the littlest and the best!”
Chapter 23:
@ 0:07 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:15 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:31 3-5 second pause needed
@ 0:45 3-5 second pause needed
Chapter 25:
There is a pause needed, but upon review I'll note it here and in the MW for myself when it comes along to editing and take care of it.
Great job though! If you have any questions, please ask!
Elijah

Just to note, there are a few errors in the highlighting on the script. It highlights Polly's words pink, when Phronsie is supposed to have pink!
And for 2 PL notes in Chapter 4, I am so so sorry but you fell victim to my poor highlighting skills But at 0:45 to about 1:05 you have two lines belonging to Polly “Oh, dear,” and “how nice, Ben! you always do think of the very best things.”
And then just a missing line in 4: "No, no."
Well done!
Thanks, I’ll get on it! Have a bit of a cold so may be a few days while my voice gets functional again.ej400 wrote: ↑November 18th, 2024, 3:40 pmAwesome job with these! Great work! Percy Chapters 18-22, & 24 are PL OK!
