Voice if anyone needs it


i-am-barrett

Recommended Posts

I'm late to the party, I know... but I've been told I sound a bit like Garrett so I figured I'd offer my voice and see if anyone thinks it would be useful to them.

 

Attached is a (somewhat rough) take with a couple lines from the series. [1]

 

If you think I could be useful, let me know. If not, feel free to disregard. Thanks for producing such a kick-ass game/mod.

 

Gear:

Shure C03U, pop filter

Sound-dampened recording room

Software: Very poor. Not really my scene.

 

[1] I blew the inflection on the "ly" of "probably". Sorry. Obviously if I were doing this for real I'd do another take. This is just a quick demo...

You chose your friends well for your voice is almost identical.

"I really perceive that vanity about which most men merely prate — the vanity of the human or temporal life. I live continually in a reverie of the future. I have no faith in human perfectibility. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active — not more happy — nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. The result will never vary — and to suppose that it will, is to suppose that the foregone man has lived in vain — that the foregone time is but the rudiment of the future — that the myriads who have perished have not been upon equal footing with ourselves — nor are we with our posterity. I cannot agree to lose sight of man the individual, in man the mass."...

- 2 July 1844 letter to James Russell Lowell from Edgar Allan Poe.

For sound software, I use Audition, but I get adobe suite and it plugs to everything I need:

Free software: http://www.audacityteam.org/ <--- is probably the best you will get, imo.

Just remembered, adobe cooledit pro is now called audition - cooledit pro is now free: http://cool-edit-pro.soft32.com/free-download/

Really good quality imho! I hope you get many PMs - if not you can always feel free to give your voice to an open voice concept (which can be found in the Wiki?). Would be nice to hear you ingame! :)

That's the script for one voice. It gives you a sense of what's needed, though it wouldn't be good to use those exact words.

 

Here's a better place to see what's required when contributing a voice set. There are a few hurdles to jump wrt to sound quality and delivery. Each set has over 300 sounds in it, so it's quite a daunting task.

 

If you get requests from authors to provide voices for their missions, then it's between you and them what gets said and what the result sounds like.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
