I hear voices ...Well, not quite voices in the sky, but voices from a talented group of Music Technology students in a studio with a pleasingly bright acoustic and natural reverb, recorded using a crossed pair of condenser mics, stand-mounted in front of the group. Individual samplesMaterial for this section coming soon ExamplesAgain, "we're working on this"! Please check back later! The entire sessionsThe files below give an idea of how the sessions progressed during recording. They are complete sessions, except for the removal of a few extraneous noises. They have been normalized to give a reasonable dynamic range. Ideas for these sessions were taken from the Voices Handout. As with other printable resources on this site, please feel free to print and usethis sheet as a starting-point for your own studio sessions. Don't be restricted by it; if you have other ideas for vocal sounds, you should use them. As I said to the students during one of the sessions here: "Laughter is also allowed"! Remember what we agreed at the start - the only difference between sound and noise is whether you want to use it in your composition or not. If you want it, it's sound; if you don't want it, it's noise. [... and there's nothing wrong with your sound being someone else's noise, and vice-versa.] Check back soon; we will have more snippets of sounds, soundbytes and other aural delights for you to download [for free!] take away, and work on ... and a few more examples of what can be done ... Credit and ThanksSincere thanks to Music Technology students: Sean Foden, Chris Lewis, Brad Sandell, Rory Shackell and Catrin Vincent together with their Music Technology tutor Mr Richard Marr for their time, voices, patience and natural spontaneity during the recording sessions.
