Chris, All I did was load your original unedited recording into Cool Edit/Audition, --isolate that section where Far Horizons was heard in that Ghost Village's version of your recording... -- where I then lowered the pitch a teeny tiny bit and Far Horizons was heard loud and clear. --Yet when I loaded your 'denoised recording' into Cool Edit and isolated that same area where Far Horizons was supposed to be and lowered the pitch of that section a teeny tiny bit, Far Horizons was not heard at all. That's because when you cleaned up your recording, you also took away important information from that recording. This is why I do not Denoise my recordings because that's what happens when one does that... it erases important EVP information. Lowering the pitch a tad bit , like that Ghost Village member did... and that's all he/she did -- does not fall into the category of 'over-processing'. Granted it's still 'editing' ... it's not over-processing by any stretch. --But denoising/cleaning up your clip DOES fall into the category of 'over-processing' , at least in this case, because by doing so, you deleted/erased important EVP information from where that Far Horizon's section is where it no longer sounds like Far Horizons at all when the pitch of that section was slightly lowered -- hence you 'changed' that EVP into something else... into something 'un-intelligible'. This is why so many know that there are some EVP that are multi-layered, (just like there are some 'reversed' EVP out there) in terms of pitch. Where on first listen, you know there's an anomalous voice there but it's too blurry or gravelly a voice to make out what it's saying, so in that case one can lower or raise the pitch (usually raise) of that section a tad bit where that 'voice' is to see if anything lies above it or below it. Many times one will find a name or short phrase being said very clearly -- as what we are hearing in your recording that was edited by that Ghost Village member. Good that you ran into that person because it sounds like he knows what he's doing! In this case, it's called a negative 1 pitch modification because that's the level that "Far Horizons" is being heard on. But I myself usually find very clear EVP when I raise the pitch of some of some blurry EVP where many times, what's being said on the positive 1 pitch level is much, much clearer than what's being said on the surface of that same recording on first listen. Hope you find this information interesting! The EVP field is so new, all of us are always learning new things. But the bottom line is this, document your findings... keep a journal of them and then share your insights with others. We are all here to learn and grow and granted there will always be disagreements and differing opinions on this and that, the important thing is to remain open minded on things because after all... we ARE dealing with a paranormal phenomenon. Most of what you will be finding out about EVP will be based on YOUR own personal experiences with it. Also, I would suggest you join AA-EVP's forum. I'm telling ya, there's not one place on the internet that matches up to the information about EVP that you will get there... and it's so astounding... you just wouldn't believe! At this point in time, you don't even have a clue what you're missing in regards to what EVP is all about. Just my .02 here but please do seriously consider it. There's no way you are going to find out about EVP if you are just having to rely on information from the internet or in all of those EVP forums out there where most of those members of those groups have a very distorted and incomplete knowledge of this phenomenon even though many of them try to pass themselves off as 'experts'... but they are anything but that. Trust me, I'm telling you the truth. And finally, great that you are currently building a device for spirit communication... that sounds exciting! There are a few here who are doing that too! Please keep us updated on this and great that you've got the professional background to be able to do that! Last edited on Oct 29th, 2007 07:31 AM by |
