I was about to add the time stamp as well, but when I refreshed the screen, it had already been attached! I guess we were working on the MW at the same time.

ok I was too fast LOL yes, all perfect now.

Which reminds me that I need this exact same castlist also to put in our summary. You can see a template on how this is done here for example:
viewtopic.php?p=2275100#p2275100

copy the html version and then it's simply a matter of changing the character names, the reader names and their reader pages in the appropriate spots.

I don't need it right away, but before I catalogue.

great and entertaining chapters, and very well edited, thank you, Elijah.

Chapter 3 is already PL ok

one cut needed for Chapter 4 however:

> from 0:32 to 0:37: voice credit (how did that get in here ?) "aunt Plenty read by Christine Layman, chapter 4" can be cut

reader credits can be filled in the MW and roles moved down...

That... is a question I am wondering as well. Out of all the things...

I think when I put it in there, I was telling myself "don't add the first part of Aunt Plenty's line here," and did exactly that anyway

At least it's an easy fix

Thank you, Sonia!

thank you, I only have one small suggestion:

> at 2:30: "hooray for uncle Alec" – this was uncomforably louder than the rest. I would suggest decreasing the volume by 4 or 5 dB. So many voices are also difficult to understand merged together, but it gives back the mayhem of the scene quite well

the rest was perfect

Here is the correction:

I forgot how audacity meshes together those. When you paste them in separate mono tracks, it doesn't look bad until after upload. My amplification was begging me to reduce it by over 3 dbs

Hope this works!

Thank you

yes it was hurting my ears a bit. It's much better now, thanks. And PL ok.

The readers can be assigned to the section and moved down.
