I had some microphone problems during #7. I think I've dealt with them, but there's some very quiet bits I missed let me know and I'll re-record them.
I thoroughly enjoyed your reading of these chapters!

I didn't hear anything in the terms above, but just a couple of notes for each section - minor, but I think you would like to fix them:

Section 7
0:06 loud knocking

Section 16
13:17 slight stumble
14:20 slight stumble
To my horror I discovered that I hadn't saved the edited versions of these, so I've just had to do them again <grr>. This means that the timestamps might not be quite the same.

I've redone the whole intro for Section 7, so that it flowed.

New lengths are 18:12 for secton 7 and 16:28 for Section 16.
Oh, totally NOT necessary.
You can always download them from the MW, and I save copies of all files for my DPL projects.

Well, if you've done totally new recordings, I'll need to do a complete PL on them.
I've got them in my queue.

Oh, no, no, no. I meant I had to edit them again—not do new recordings. All of my repeats, flubs and clicks were back in. I just had to take them out again.

Because of the Loudness and Noise control I need to do after recording, I find it best to work on the aud files rather than the final mp3 files.

I see. Well, they still need a complete PL, which I'm glad to do, so thanks for letting me know. I really enjoy listening to your reading, and these are great chapters. :)

Normally I don't comment on pronunciation, but the name of John Wesley's friend, George Whitefield, is so well known, that I thought it worth mentioning. The last name is Whit-field, despite the spelling of "White." Don't ask me why. It is like the famous English Poet William Cowper, who is pronounced Cooper. I said that wrong for a long time. :lol: Or, the River Thames.

Here are the times right at the end where I heard Whitefield: 20:09, 20:31, 21:09

Is the third time a charm??

This is section 11. The edits might need to blend in more. Let me know!

I hadn't realised that this author had been the Minister of the church just over the hill from where I grew up until reading section 13.

I've taken the liberty of putting it in the MW and marking it Ready for PL at your convenience.
I think you'll like it. :wink:
Thank you, Larry! PL ok. :9:

It never dawned on me that Whitefield would be pronounced any other way. :) I guess I should have expected it from how other names are pronounced, e.g., sinjin for St. John. Anyway, here is the corrected file:
