I want to get over to your Atlantic Narratives for a section and also over to your Ingersoll, of course--so let me catch up on my DPL'ing (at least a little), and I'll visit you there.
Kind regards,

Hello,

I have uploaded Chapter 16. It is 10min29secs long. There were a couple mistakes in the typing, but they were easy to correct, so I went ahead and did that.

Also, I realized that I forgot to run Chapter 15 through the Checker program, and when I did, the volume was slightly too high. I have fixed it, and uploaded it again. The only thing that changed is the volume, so the time is the same.

Hi, Arie--
Great job on your section once again--thank you! :thumbs: I have no notes on the reading of text.

Section 12: PL OK

I think that I should mention that your volume is still near the upper edge of our acceptable range at 91.7 dB. And there are once again some instances of clipping in the track (where your volume spikes). Clipping is an issue because it can cause distortion of your voice. So you might try reducing the input volume a little before you start recording (if you are using Audacity, there is a slider near the microphone icon in the upper right corner of the screen that can be adjusted downward), or maybe lean back a little from the microphone on those parts of the text that are going to "boom out" somewhat. 8-)

I don't know if you are amplifying your tracks before uploading? If so, then you might try using the Compressor effect in Audacity before amplifying. It will reduce some of those spikes without affecting the quieter portions of your tracks. You can view a couple of short, helpful videos about using Compressor here: Some Parts of My Recording are TOO LOUD and Others Too Soft and The Compressor Effect Explained.

You have a lovely voice--I can't wait to hear your next sections! :)
Kind regards,
Lucretia
