i thinks it's kinda cool, my only suggestion is to tone down the music a little and speak up. the music overpowers your voice a little.

*and stop talking like a robot :rolleyes: :p

that was a hard vote, several of the options were ones I'd choose. my only suggestion is better background music, not the main music, I mean like how the music changes when you start the quotes of the day, etc. also, the songs of the day are never very good, maybe you should get suggestions on songs of the day?

hmm, I will consider putting 'good songs' on there, but folk music and latin jams aren't really what I think are good... :black:

As for suggestions on song of the day, that will never happen, unless I think its good. Besides it doesn't have to be good, i could recommend the muppets except I just mentioned it here.

sounds like some mixing issues in introduction. The vox get lost in the theme. Other than that, all is kosher ;)

I will not use anothers loop :), I will create another, and see how people respond to it. I think its decided the first one is the best, so I think I will make a similar one to that.

And looks like no one can decide what the voice is ;)

it sounds like it could not be a standard computer voice because it is very smooth and not choppy reading but then again some of the names are pronounced wrong... So I guess as of right now, It could go either way... I am so curious as to what the voice is when graphite decides to let us in on the secret.

Listen closely to it... He pronounces the same words differently throughout the episodes... There is also background room noise through the mic. He may have pitch shifted a tiny bit... But the pink noise is fairly broad so it couldn't have been much if he did.

It is his voice. No doubt about it in my mind.
