Hear me now

[DoctaD]

Props to madscientist for the idea.

OK, we have a lot of different nationalitys here at Rorta... mostly American and Irish, but we have others too... so there must be a shitload of different accents.

So I dug deep and found my microphone, then recorded a few seconds of me talking, to give you guys an idea of what I sound like. In return, I want you guys to do the same!

Simply record your voice using whatever ya want and e-mail me the file. Try and keep the format to .wav or .mp3 as I don't like .ogg or .wma for some strange reason.

E-mail the files to either [emails no longer exist - see bottom of message] however, if you choose the latter please PM me and tell me you sent it there, as I forget to check those a lot of the time.

Here are all our member's voices so far

Irish accents kick so much ass!

[torcher]

wish i had a microphone. of course...everyone would say i sound like a redneck...so just imagine...a big guy from the south talking and you may have it. but probably not. oh well...sorry. good idea though.

[THErAPIST]

I've got a mic but it sucks. I sent docta d an email with my file attached. Torch, you osund like any other person around here... not really redneckish. I can think of quite a few people who sound more redneck than you :p

[duiker]

Noooaay! Don't let me offend you D-man, that was insane.

http://www.rorta.net/accents/dukier.mp3

[DoctaD]

Thanks THErAPIST, can't torcher use your mic?

Scentless, dukier... c'mon! A few seconds'll from everyone'll make a difference to the thread. When we have a good few, I'll put 'em all in the one mp3.

Did ya know, with the right set-up you can use a speaker as a microphone? Even earphones! (Although to be honest, you'd need to shout and the sound quality would be kinda fucked up)

dukier's file's in her post now.

[Stone]

Just plug the headphones into the mic socket and talk into the left earphone.

I noticed a bit of an accent but not too much at all. I'm from Indiana, btw.

[DoctaD]

All files are now mp3... I forgot I had Cool Edit Pro 2.0

THErAPIST you sound like my friends older brother...I don't have a mix either but I bet fuCKYou has one I can use..

[C.R. Ripshit]

Finally, a normal sounding voice. (j/k but that's what I'm used to)

[madscientist]

The monotone midwestern mumble...

[THErAPIST]

I have a slight accent, but it's not really a southern one... it's more of an "i smoked myself stupid" accent i guess. My mom was from north carolina, and my dad was from michigan... ive got friends from all over the place... no real influence to mess with me.

note: torcher lives 2 hours from me... maybe i'll record something on the 4th if he can get here to blow up the world with me

[Stone]

Here's mine (http://www.rorta.net/accents/stone_voice.mp3)

[C.R. Ripshit]

Wow, I had to listen to it three times just to understand "Stone here".

[torcher]

yeah im gonna be heading down to meet up with THErAPIST tomorow. so ill try to get my voice on here.

EDIT: i didnt get a chance to record it...maybe i've got friends with them.

[C.R. Ripshit]

Sounds good.

[Armalite]

I am totally buying a mic tomorrow. I have a Texan/spanglish accent. Raised in Texas but been living amongst New Mexican gangster Mexicans for a few years.

[THErAPIST]

that could get interesting heh heh :D

[KaRMa]

My sound clip (Western US) has been sent in. It's basically a standard accent from any film out of hollywood since I live about an hour away from there.

[redemption]

Ah that's very interesting. Cool idea man.

[Armalite]

what the fuck is dukier talking about? What movie is that from?

[Eulux]

poem by ogden nash if I remember...my sister loved that poem...

[duiker]

I thought it was Spike Milligan.. Oh well.

[DoctaD]

Anyone else have a microphone? We want to hear your voice!
-DD

[Houndish]

I gotta remember this thread when I go home. You guys'll appreciate my New England dialect and pronunciation (or lack there of).

[DoctaD]

Bump. I want as many people as possible to contibute to this thread. It's something I find very interesting.

[Nox (ADVANCED)]

will try an find a mic to get a sound file up.

I think I need to pay less attention to avatars. This and the members pictures threads threw me off greatly. I half expect headcase to resemble the little troll, and DD to sound more like some sort of mad scientist.
