Thanks, Todd
Thanks, Todd. Nicely done. Just a few small changes needed:
  • There are two renditions of your role name, one with the name of the play, and one without. Only the second one is needed. It’s likely not a big deal, but since there are other changes, perhaps you could delete the first?
  • At 0:14, you’ve pronounced Perseus as Per-see-us, but the pronunciation guide requires it to be said as Pur-Soos.
  • At 0:16, 0:23, and 1:02, there’s more silence needed to bring the silence between speeches up to at least 3 seconds.
Cheers,
Winnifred

Mercury for Pandora: at 0:20, Epimetheus and Prometheus should have the single-syllable ending, "-thoos"

Thanks, Todd

Mercury for Pandora: at 0:20, Epimetheus and Prometheus should have the single-syllable ending, "-thoos"

Mercury for Transformation of Io and for Phaethon are both PL OK :thumbs: :thumbs:
Thanks Lynette! MW updated :thumbs:

And since Transformation of Io isn't the one with PL notes I can actually begin editing it our soon-to-be second finished play
Hey! I've got Io's play on my queue. What are you looking for when we PL the final files - just basically making sure all lines are assembled correctly, or do you like getting notes about the listening experience as well (comments regarding pacing, spacing, loudness differences, etc.)?

I'm open to comments on the listening experience, I am still quite new to this after all and would like to improve just maybe note what of your issues are essential and what is optional

Thank you all! MW updated :thumbs:

I have also changed Owler's and Salvationist's to PL OK with optional PL notes because her issues were voice credits and cut out the extra bit in editing and his were optional changes but the rest were all pronunciation or missing lines so they need to be changed

You're almost there on Orpheus. Just three small corrections needed:
  • The sample rate should be 441000 Hz, yours is 48000 Hz, please fix that when you re-export the file.
  • At 1:49, I hear “by the love that untied you two..” but the text reads “by the love that united you two…”
  • At 4:10, I hear “…he refused my entries…” but the text reads “…he refused my entreaties…”
Thanks,
Winnifred
