Hello dckabir,
Your recording sounds great! :clap: Here are the PL notes for Acts 2 and 3.

Act 2: at 2:40 please change "She" to "Shakuntala" in "(Sha. makes a reverence.)" At the end after "Curtain" please add "End of Act 2" and 5 sec. silence.

Act 3: I may have heard this incorrectly--at :46 please change "thief" to "chief" in "SUCH (to the chief)." At 9:11 change "End of Act 2" to "End of Act 3."

Thank you!
Lora

The files for P. in Act 1 and Act 2 are each PL Okay, however, they both are 84.3 when I run them through Checker. I know the volume has been adjusted previously....what would be the best course of action going forward?

Thanks,
Lora
Don't worry much about volume if 1) there is no clipping - that can't be fixed except by the originator - or 2) there just needs to be some amplification to get within the range we want. I have to adjust all the volumes when I edit everyone together anyhow.

Thanks, Todd

Todd and Sara,
Since the volume needs to be adjusted when Todd edits, I'm going to mark those sections PL Okay. I didn't notice clipping in the recordings.
Thanks,
Lora

If its ok for the 'stage directions' voice to take on any of the smaller roles, maybe the actress or the policemen :hmm:, do assign me a section.

Thank you

Thank you, but I don't let people play two characters unless they are in different acts. The stage direction voice occurs throughout and might confuse a listener.

Thank you though.

Hi Todd and Elijah,
PL Okay for the Watcher and Fisherman; Todd, please check the files--I think they are switched around and need to be fixed. Thanks, Lora

Got it, and swapped the file links from ej400 to where they should be.

Thanks, Todd
