(The Return of..) The PPT Voice Topic

Mon Jul 12, 2004 5:43 pm

Works the same as Picture topics, but you post a clip of your voice instead.

here's me reciting the first stanza of The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe but I'm whispering...so you'll have to turn everything up to 100, in winamp or whatever media player you use.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
" 'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door;
Only this, and nothing more."

I recorded it on aim, so it sounds crappy.
"This is how I say water."

Haha "I'm not a hick and I don't live on a farm even if I sound like I do" :roflol:

I live in Virginia, not far from you but I rarely hear the southern accent. I've been told there is a Virginian accent but I'm not sure what the heck that really is, maybe because I'm used to hearing it. You have a really nice singing voice Chass

This is now officially my favourite topic.

Im at a total loss for inspiration, myself, so suggestions are welcome.

Mon Jul 12, 2004 10:36 pm

I don't have a microphone. So I can't record my voice. x_x Not that you'd like to hear it, anyhow. It's scratchy and I think I sound more like a guy than I do a girl. o_O

Thanks, Paul. I now know how weird British accents really sound!

EDIT: Jim, say "Now where did my monkey socks go to?"!

Sorry for being such a technology-challenged person again, but how do I save any .wav files I make and post them here? Anyone patient enough to tell me step-by-step is awesome.

Make sure your mic is plugged and working. Go to your sound recorder under accessories. Press record, talk/sing/make noises, press stop. File, save as _______. Then upload it. If you have a Yahoo account, just use Geocities as your host, unless you have a better one.

Maybe one of these days I'll make a sound file, but I tend to sound like a complete moron when recording.

Haha, today I learned where sound recorder is.

I want you guys to hear my voice, but I don't want to sound stupid by saying nonesense, so what should I saaaaaay?

Sorry if I sound like a complete moron saying this, but is there any way of getting a free Yahoo account so I can use Geocities?
