What Do You Sound Like?

[¿Que?]

So there's this site that let's you easily record your voice and then gives you a link that you can post somewhere. I would be interested to hear what people on this site sound like. Thing is, I'm not sure if this is against board policy, as it could be considered personally identifiable information.

So here's the site:
http://vocaroo.com/

But I think we should get a mod's OK before anyone posts anything.

[bcbm]

bad idea (http://www.necn.com/10/07/10/Voice-recognition-technology-used-to-tra/landing.html?blockID=326855&feedID=4213)

[Jazzratt]

Probably best not to, in light of bcbm's link. On the other hand no one's been traced from a written description of their voice, so you could give that a shot.

[¿Que?]

Yeah, I figured as much. Anyway, it's not quite as fun, but I'll give it a shot. I mean, they say this society is all hung up on looks anyway, I think what we sound like is pretty important too.

Anyway, I don't sound a day over 18, but I am actually quite a bit older than that.

[Invincible Summer]

People have told me I sound like Napoleon Dynamite. Fuck them.


But my voice is fairly deep and I talk sort of lazily I suppose.

[Jazzratt]

Largely a deep monotone punctuated by surprisingly girlish giggles, rough guffaws and shouted obscenities.

[¿Que?]

I think that if people have some sort of accent, like a British accent, they should say so too. I don't have an accent, though. I speak American!:lol:

[Crux]

I still don't really like my voice when I hear it recorded.

[DaComm]

Monotone, slightly southern-ish accent, average depth I suppose- for my age though, rather deep.

[maskerade]

people say i have a mellow, somewhat deep voice. quite monotone. i'd like to think i have an "international" accent, but everyone else says i sound american.

[Quail]

I have a fairly neutral British accent, with a few Derbyshire twangs (if anyone will even know what the hell that sounds like). When I hear my voice played back it always makes me cringe because it's higher than it sounds to me, and I think it sounds kind of whiny (although people tend to reassure me it doesn't).

[meow]

people constantly think i am from a country that i am not from. my accent is a bit strange. my voice is really sexxy though. i won a sexxy voice competition five years in a row. :cool:

[EvilRedGuy]

Bullshit. Proof or it didn't happen.

[Il Medico]

For whatever reason i've been told (and then noticed) that when I speak really fast, I sound like I have a slight Spanish accent. And apparently my French has a Spanish accent. Both of these make little to no sense to me as I speak very little Spanish.

As for regular, my voice is kinda in the middle. Masculine, but not very much so. When I sing I can sing real low for slow songs (like Dean Martin or whatever) and high pitch on songs that call for it.

Apparently my laugh is a 'little girly', or so I am told.

[Dimentio]

I am mistaken for being Norwegian quite a lot.

[Magón]

Like a Mexican Male.

[Axle]

I've heard my voice on recording many times, and its pretty deep. Apart from that, I speak loudly and have a pretty typical Mid West accent.

[Martin Blank]

I sound like my father and brother.

[The Red Next Door]

People say my accent sound British, and Nigerian

[Ele'ill]

I've been told I have a gypsy-mix of Brooklyn (New York)- Canadian (I guess I pronounce my O's as such)- Southern as in New Orleans. On two occasions I've had people guess that I was from the Philadelphia area. Who knows?

[Rusty Shackleford]

I sound like God.

What the hell is a "canadian" accent? The stereotype is really only a small subset of people who live in Newfoundland

[fa2991]

My voice is a little deeper than normal. When recorded it sounds really deep, though it isn't.

[¿Que?]

Actually, I just remembered that one time I heard a recording of Hewie P. Newton, and for an instant I thought I was hearing a recording of me, and it shocked me because I was like, how the hell did these people get a recording of my voice. But then I realized it was Hewie P. So I guess that's what I sound like.

[Aloysius]

I have a pretty average voice for someone my age...It sounds a little higher to me than to others, though. Sometimes, I switch into a fake Canadian accent, completely unconsciously (too much Degrassi, I think.). I'm actually really self-conscious about my laugh.

[Pretty Flaco]

My accent has been mistaken for being:
Canadian
English
Irish
Polish(?)
Spanish (as in Spain)
Scottish
and random other shit I can't think of at the moment.

But I think I sound very American. :(

[NoOneIsIllegal]

Because of where I grew up and how we speak, I've known a lot of telemarketers. You've probably hung up on a friend or family member of mine. Damn you!

[RedAnarchist]

I would say that my accent is a typical Central Lancashire accent.

[kalu]

People say I speak English like a foreigner (?), though it's my first language and the only one I'm truly fluent in.:lol: Enough people, btw, that it's pretty much a confirmed fact. I also apparently put on different accents without being aware, but nothing "traceable." Some sound like a southern drawl, others "south asian," others just...off the charts. I think I could be Dana Carvey's master of disguises. Most of the time though, I think I just sound "not smooth," in the sense that when I hear audio recording of myself it's this odd airy, deep voice mixed with awkwardness (of course), but also just really...well, to me my voice sounds weird, I don't know. Listening to recordings of yourself is defamiliarising, I think.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

Most of the time I speak with a Received Pronunciation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_Pronunciation) accent, but when in an excited state I'm told I sound a little Scouse (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scouse).

[black magick hustla]

deep and a really hard accent. people tell me i sound russian even mexicans

[Il Medico]

You do a little. But a Spanish Russian. A Sprussian.

[Quail]

I never thought of linking to wikipedia, but my accent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Midlands_English

Although I don't really sound like that. My family do, but somehow I seem to have kept a fairly neutal accent.

[leftace53]

Monotone.

Unless I see a fuzzy animal or am talking about something I love such as arts and crafts, books, physics, cheese, and philosophy, at that point, I go into high pitched googly eye mode.

[Nolan]

I speak with a mild Appalachian accent, or so I'm told by Columbians and Clevelandites.

[L.A.P.]

I have a light Upstate New York accent.

[gorillafuck]

People have told me I sound like Napoleon Dynamite. Fuck them.

But my voice is fairly deep and I talk sort of lazily I suppose.
:laugh:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_American That is what I have.

[Panda Tse Tung]

I have a Dutch accent. Idk why.

[Pavlov's House Party]

standard american/canadian with a touch of irish and quebecois. when i speak french i apparently sound more irish than "canadian" to francophones but sound convincingly quebecois enough to pass when around english speakers.

[Kuppo Shakur]

I mumble like a motherfucker.

[Uppercut]

Monotone. Somewhat deep. Nothing special.

[fa2991]

Monotone.

Same!

Also, when I laugh, I sound a lot like Yakov Smirnoff. :thumbup1:

I've heard the quebec accent is hard to understand. I speak French, but probably not well enough to understand dialects/accents that aren't too common.

[eyedrop]

I have been told some times that my voice would be quite good as a vocalist for a metal or hardcore band.

I also got a secondary voice set I use when I explain something, somewhat of a really condescending teacher voice.

Yes, and it's exactly what I imagine Muzk to sound like while he reads his posts out loud as he's typing them.
