[edit] Vocoder demo track

I did not wish to upset you, but Wikipedia is not MySpace for personal projects. 30 seconds is plenty for most audio clips on Wikipedia, and this track sounds like a teenager's quick demo rather than a professional quality recording. If I do not remove this then it is quite likely that someone else will.--Ianmacm 19:53, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey there ;) I did this in maybe 15 minutes (excluding lyrics) just take a look at the file info -- and I think it perfectly does it's job although I used the cheapest micro on earth (the one build in my notebook).

  • it demonstrates how chords and melody affect the formant rather than a 1 second sample
  • it demonstrates how to vocode an instrument (drums) instead of a voice and the result.

Both practices are described in the article, but the one shot sample somehow lacked.

It's really nothing more than a technical demonstration rather than a "song", so why should I put my best melodies in a quick demo I release for free? I could probably supply demos for many synths which have articles here on Wikipedia. However if people expect me to release "professional quality recordings" for free I'm out ;)

By the way I usually just record vocals in "professional environments" and play guitar in private, so take into account I'm no keyboard wizz at all, just grabbed one which looked good for this demo ;=).--PartySan CZ 20:29, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Personally, I would rather have the vocoded section from ELOs Mister Blue Sky. This is a classic demo of a singing vocoder effect, and could be uploaded as long as the clip was 30 seconds or less. Can we consider this as a compromise?--Ianmacm 20:37, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
