I didn't do any processing on these, thinking it better to allow maximum flexibility during the later mixing. I'll go for a bit louder in any case via mic placement/gain, but would you prefer me to go ahead and process future tracks to 89 dB? I usually use the Audacity ReplayGain plugin for that.

Thanks for asking. For this project, they're just fine being sent in as they are. My husband and I do the editing, so I know every role file is fine-tuned when the chapter gets assembled. :)

Sorry to take so long! It takes more time to literally tear your kitchen apart for refinishing than I anticipated! :lol:

Really love your Fitzurse, and ch. 8 is PL OK :thumbs:

Thanks, Erik!

That was a good chapter for Bois-Guilbert, and you did a fabulous job with it! 11 is PL OK :thumbs:

Thanks, Elijah! 13 and 33 are both PL OK :thumbs: :thumbs:

I have a few PL Notes for you:

ch. 11 - One missing line, should come in at 0:12 -

Merry Man 1, Merry Man 2, Merry Man 3, Merry Man 4, Miller: “A forfeit — a forfeit,”
shouted the robbers;
Merry Man 3: “A Saxon hath thirty zecchins, and returns sober from a village!”
Merry Man 4: “An undeniable and unredeemable forfeit of all he hath about him.”
Gurth: “I hoarded it to purchase my freedom,”


ch 29 - Pretty please, would you mind doing this line over in a you're-going-into-battle yell? :)

Ch 32 - these two lines would also greatly benefit from "ambiance" - they should be enthusiastic yells in the "he's a jolly good fellow!" style
