I'd have hours of endless fun with a simple audio "gallery" of some of the more seasoned characters in the bakery, saying the kind of things you'd expect them to say, only in their own voices.
According to Bliss, Jutta would sound a bit like a Scandinavian tennis player, and I always imagine UB
to sound a bit like Crocodile Dundee.
Reading some of the annos this week, my personal request would be a recording of a terse-sounding Waugs saying "Too Late. Step away from the duck."

I am so sad that I missed that radio broadcast. |
|
| |
How about an audio calendar? |
|
| |
phoenix: it wouldn't be at all difficult to add audio files to the HB calendar. But not streaming (don't know how to do that thing). |
|
| |
now this one is a very good idea! + but can we screen out Dr. Curry! |
|
| |
I always imagined [DrCurry] sounding like the serious highway patrol officer type ... |
|
| |
I know a few academics that I imagine [Vernon] would sound like... :P |
|
| |
([Vern], I assure you I know some very interesting academics.) |
|
| |
It's strange how the mind assigns voices to people, this idea would be kinda cool once baked. Then again, it might ruin my preconceptions of bakers...
I'll have a look at implementing it on my site [Fishy]...I don't expect it will be anytime soon though. |
|
| |
nm: no, but for that, we can certainly screen you out!
lbf: blissmiss once told me I sound like UnaBubba, which has to be a turn-up for the books. Or evidence that Professor Higgins' services are sorely needed around here. |
|
| |
po told DrCurry "I sound like UnaBubba"? |
|
| |
Perhaps its the username, but I hear DrCurry as William Hartnell |
|
| |
If it looks like [po], walks like [DrCurry], and talks like [UnaBubba], it must be a [FishRat]. |
|
| |
what a curious chap he must be. |
|
| |
I didn't ask the creators of Overbaked if it was ok, so they may delete everything there. However, there's about 20 Mb of space in the files area so I created a Halfbakery Audio Gallery folder. Please record a sample of your voice, convert it to MP3, and post it. Keep it under 300 Kb, so that everyone can play. If you need help with any of this send me an e-mail. |

Man now I gotta dig-out the mic. |
|
| |
[worldgineer] thanks! I'm toying with the idea of putting a link to my radio show here as a link... |
|
| |
do it [Fishrat] - reveal your true identity! |
|
| |
(see link for [fishrat]'s true identity) |
|
| |
awww ... [DrCurry] all pissed off? |
|
| |
Censors? We don't need no stinking censors! |
|
| |
nm: not possible (unless you're UnaBubba, of course), but we do discriminate. |
|
| |
Interesting what you think I might sound like. |
|
| |
I think I sound a bit like UnaBubba. Differently accented, however. |
|
| |
I'll add my voice-over as soon as I get home ... <sarcasm> OOH, great, a reason to live - I might get to hear [UnaBubba]! </s> |
|
| |
Overbaked is now an open-membership group, with no clunky membership approval thingy to deal with. |
|
| |
RT, I think you're the perfect man to do the mixing... |
|
| |
Maybe we should all provide recordings of ourselves doing imitations of UnaBubba? |
|
| |
Sounds like a hoot, DrC. Though, I can imagine UnaBubba soundling like Vinnie Jones too ... |
|
| |
Ok ... got mine up ... I sound like such a Disc Jockey on the computer. |
|
| |
"Put THAT on your toast" isn't a HB tagline .. its one from our race team ... and YES, thats it. This oration for the visually impared is a public service brought to you free of charge ... |
|
| |
Oh ... sorry, Gromit ... uuuuh ... thanks ... I misjudged the sarcasm and missed the landing ... |
|
| |
I'm going to link to a stream of my radio show, but only for today, because I'm shy. "Stoney in the Morning", although that's not my real name either, starts in 15 minutes. Performance art, luvs... don't ya know. 6.00 - 09.00 GMT. |
|
| |
Well, put your recording device of choice where your mouth is ... so you halfbake while at work, Fishy? |
|
| |
The Darkness for a first song ... good call ... HAD NO IDEA HE SOUNDED LIKE THAT - RUBBISH ... you said it, not me! hehe :P... we love you, Fishy! |
|
| |
No, I work while I'm 'baking. This is a strange blurring of boundaries. |
|
| |
I think its awesome. I do the same thing, and I'm honored to know your secret identity. Not everyday you get to Halfbake with a celebrity ... I'd like to request some Ramones, or some Vandals ... you guys play any Vandals? |
|
| |
Its 12:28 pm here right now ... -6:00 GMT |
|
| |
Great show, Lee. Thank you for sharing with all of us and for the HB mention on the air.
<Listening from the U.S.A. at 10:45 PM> |
|
| |
Have a dedication for my girlfriend pending. Don't know if it will make the show. She's listening. |
|
| |
OK, this is getting bizarre! What's the dedication? I'll read it out in a few minutes. lbf: My boss will shoot me (sadly) if I play the Ramones. |
|
| |
Umm ... Can you play any Ataris or Less Than Jake? Just something rock before I go off to bed ... but its not a super pressing issue. |
|
| |
Fishrat, I'm so glad you proposed this idea. Sadly, I am
unable to link to your show at present--had to reload my
OS and I still have files to update. How much longer will
you be on? (Currently it is 7:45 GMT.) |
|
| |
So far I've caught Rayford~ and 'Fortbuilder's' voice on
Overbaked. Absolutely awsome to hear your voices guys! |
|
| |
Weekdays starting at 6:00am GMT ... 6am-9am methinks, unless something comes up ... and stop it, I'm blushing! |
|
| |
I'm on every weekday 6-9 am (GMT), but I'll probably remove the link from the 'bakery in a couple of days to keep my secret safe. By the way, how do I get onto Overbaked? I've never been there. |
|
| |
Its linked above. Just joining the group shouldn't be that tough, but its required to get to the goods ... |
|
| |
Oh God...I'm linked! Listen to you, Fishrat! You got that cute little accent and all and what a cool show, cool playlist! I just want it to be summer now riding around with the top down! |
|
| |
You don't drive a Jensen Interceptor do you? ... The image I had was kind of funny. |
|
| |
Ha! I know why you asked. |
|
| |
Interesting ... Thats very interesting indeed. |
|
| |
UB, I most certainly do NOT have a cockney accent - blimey mate, get yer ears washed out. |
|
| |
eggy, back me up here or I will never speak to you again! |
|
| |
[admin] I've tidied up this thread now, please don't be offended if I've deleted your anno. Also, I'll remove the link to my radio show tomorrow, thanks for all the contribs. |
|
| |
Ok, mine's up. It's a fairly bad joke told without timing or correct inflection (really, just reading it from a joke website). I was going to re-record but don't want to wake my wife. |
|
| |
There's a sound file from henrietta posted there that's apparently blank (35kb wav file). Who are you? |
|
| |
[Ray] - you sound nothing at all like I imagined. [LBAF] - you sound similar but different than I pictured. |
|
| |
... and what was she saying?? |
|
| |
I think it's something backwards. But I can't get any of my players to play it backwards. Drat. |
|
| |
(later) Nevermind. It wasn't backwards. I'm pretty sure it's "Quackenmike. Emodi eew do dwemodi dom." |
|
| |
Yeah, but it won't work for files you loaded. I ended up using the cheapo sound recorder to record what was coming out of another sound program, then reversing that. Even more gibberish than the original. |
|
| |
anything to do with John Lennon? |
|
| |
It's not in English is it? |
|
| |
It's a message from the devil. Will somebody burn/drown/throw onions at Henrietta_Hugglebee immediately. |
|
| |
Well the XP one doesn't. But that doesn't matter anyway - I made it work and it's gibberish. Anyone have a guess as to who this mystery person is? (Fishrat beat me to this anno, oddly enough answering my question before I asked it) |
|
| |
Do deaf people envision "voices" of people when they read quotes/posts/etc. from them? ("A nudge is as good as a wink, to a blind man," type of thing.) Or do they envision Sign language (an evolved language, unique in its own right, similar more to Chinese than English)? |
|
| |
Nice recording, [sufc] ... even considering the microphone! |
|
| |
Who exactly is Henrietta_Hugglebee? I'm kind of scared now. |
|
| |
Actually, [World] if you go into "AUdio Properties" in the windows recorder, and select your output, you can then reverse it from there. And its still gibbrish. |
|
| |
That last bit sounds very similar to, "or everyone will think I'm a god" |
|
| |
Talk about your celebrity halfbakers. |
|
| |
Henrietta is an american impersonating a cockney accent and it starts something like: "crickey mate .....think I' m a guy" I have my suspicions :) |
|
| |
I hear bran will help that. |
|
| |
you will regret that to your very fibre. |
|
| |
.. so good you forget the fruit! |
|
| |
World, so how did you imagine I sounded? The recording job was pretty lousy... |
|
| |
Older, with a deeper voice. Don't know why. |
|
| |
I do have a low singing voice, but not a deep one. Not enough girth. |
|
| |
[fishrat] just want to say that i loved your show...it was fun to listen to it before i went to bed. I agree with [tiger lily] you do have a cute accent. ;) Thanks for sharing that with me. in return i will share pictures of my baby. [link] enjoy. :) |
|
| |
Just because it has a baby attached doesn't necessarily mean that it's yours, b_p.
|
|
| |
Damn. Tell "Daddy" to watch where he's stepping! |
|
| |
He wears a 4-month old baby (sized) shoe ... the unconventional shoe size, I know, but its all we have to go on ... |
|
| |
but she is only a week old there...and that is a size 16 shoe, so a 4 month old baby shoe size would be huge!!! |
|
| |
[k_sra] the baby makes too much noise on most occasion...so we have a hard time missing her...;) |
|
| |
"my baby...kicks ass." heeheehee |
|
| |
Man, [Rayford], it sounds like you were really losing the battle with that damn purple reptile in your audio snippet ... |
|
| |
I found if you whack the toy hard enough against the desk, it stops. |
|
| |
I keep that info on the back-burner for later use ... thanks, Ray |
|
| |
[Ray] I agree with [World], you definatly sound different from my perception of you.
[lbaf] you sound how I imagined, sorry to make you sound predictable...
As soon as I get my mic back, I'll add my own. |
|
| |
Aww, its cool, [stormer], I'm glad ya gave it a listen. |
|
| |
yeah, i agree with [silverstormer]..you sound just like yourself lbaf....:) |
|
| |
I hear that when you get enough liquer in me I don't sound at all like myself. :P |
|
| |
Die Barny Die made me laugh, [RayfordSteele]. OK, I'm up on the "Gallery" too. |
|
| |
Can everyone stop freaking me out, already! Mind you, Hannah Hunter... Henrietta_Hugglebee... Shirley no coincidence? |
|
| |
She is... I got her to make a Bob The Builder reference in a later bulletin, just for you. |
|
| |
Alright, I'm there now too. Where's everybody else, I wonder? Huh?? Huh?? I want to hear my dear [Po]'s voice! |
|
| |
If you need a microphone, [po] I'll gladly send one to you! |
|
| |
Ok ... got my sound contribution up! |
|
| |
No fair. Can't listen to fishy or anyone 'cos at work without earphones. Waaaaah! Also have no way of recording me saying "A Haaaandbaaag!". Am very dissapointed. |
|
| |
[Squeek], et. al. I have a solution for you. I have a (free trial) toll-free voicemail number. Call 877-571-5502 (US), and leave a message. Make sure to leave your HB name so I know who you are. If it works, I'll be able to grab the sound clip off the internet. Hurry though, I only get the account for 7 days. |
|
| |
(later) I just tested it and it works perfectly. Voice mail away! |
|
| |
Can I request [thumbwax] saying the following: "Welcome to my profile, Motherfucker" ? |
|
| |
Thanks, btw, [World] very generous of you. |
|
| |
May the prank calling commence. |
|
| |
[thumb] does not sound like I'd imagined him to sound. |
|
| |
My british accent is no how that confident! Besides, I'm much shyer than I thought I would be. I'll probably end up burping into the phone and hanging up. |
|
| |
I can't tell accents very well over the HB. Except [po]'s. In fact, that's my next guess. [po], are you [thumbwax]? |
|
| |
what? gawd blimey mate - thats one posh chick! you sure it aint blissmiss or praps its jutta having a joke on you all.. |
|
| |
hey, awfuk thought - it might be the Bubba with a flawless cockney eastender interprets the Queen! 'mazing feet of vocal dexterity. |
|
| |
Aww, c'mon, [k_sra] ... PLEEEEEZE |
|
| |
yeah she's good, Fort. what an actress! |
|
| |
But I want to hear [k_sra] SOOOO much. <*belch> |
|
| |
oh Fort, I will get her to telephone you - no problem. |
|
| |
get yourself smartened up first, she's worth the effort, & stop belching for gawd's sake. |
|
| |
I'll put on my best tie. Wait ... d'oh |
|
| |
Thanks, [po] you're a saint. |
|
| |
Hmmm! Have 1.3Meg file ready to serve up. Cannot rationalise to small mp3. Must try harder. |
|
| |
World, any ideas why I can play two of the three wav
files, but not thumb's? |
|
| |
FJ, I hear the voice of a singer! |
|
| |
UnaBubba, any chance anytime soon we'll know what you
"really" sound like? |
|
| |
[TL] I changed the spaces to underscores - try it now. |
|
| |
Actually, it looks like it won't let me play several of the files now. I have a theory there's a limit to the amount you can download in a day, which is blown as soon as you click on [FJ]'s sound file (shaming him for breaking my <300kb limit). |
|
| |
Sorry, I loaded a faster version now. |
|
| |
FJ, Does the faster version sound like little FarmMouse? |
|
| |
More like a one-armed milk maid with fleas. |
|
| |
World, I think maybe its more a bandwidth limit, you
think? I had no trouble playing any of the files just now,
except that I still can't get thumbwax' file to play. It
appears to download but I don't know where it goes after
that. |
|
| |
I would imagine after the the novelty of this dies down
just a bit, there will be no problem with Farmer's original
file. |
|
| |
Oh dear FJ, (lol) you do have a way with images... |
|
| |
Wait a minute ... is your true identity ... erm ... hold on, its comin' to me ... uhh ... OOH! I got it - Goliath from Davey and Goliath? |
|
| |
I've been on the sidelines for awhile watching and listening to the written words in my head by all you "regular" (not ethel) HBs. Your voices rang in my head as clear as the doorbell on my house of cards. Now though, through this idea, your voices are real and fight with my fantasy audio files. IT'S GREAT. I love the tussle. |
|
| |
I want to know how babyhawk made baby babyhawk make a baby noise on cue. Was it editing software, or is baby babyhawk destined for a life in theatre? |
|
| |
I personally think she taught the baby tricks ... or pinched the poor thing. |
|
| |
Wow, I find that perplexing. I'll take your word, but it
seems hard to believe. I have never seen a machine that
doesn't have some kind of sound card. I don't think it has
anything to do with need, unless you need it not to have
one for some reason. Out of the five in my household even
the eight year old model can play CD-roms and both of my
children's entry level machines have built in mics. |
|
| |
While we're at it, why not have famous 'bakers record and post, "Hey, this is [name] and you're listening to HMP3 radio." (or something like that) Um, no reason? |
|
| |
I was guessing you did. Still of all the people I know who
build their machines, I've never heard of one built to spec
as a mute. |
|
| |
I meant to add also, [UB], it would be nice if you do add
your voice. There's something calming about the
reassurance of humaness in each persons voice file, silly
or not. Likewise, I've enjoyed very much DrCurry's pictures
of the real people behind the 'bakers. In the same way I
find it calming to see the real faces and know that no one
is a god or a demon. Just human and still just as
interesting. I wish more 'bakers would contribute to these
collections. |
|
| |
[fishrat] i just recorded it when she was in a good mood...she makes noices like that all the time when she is looking around & playing... |
|
| |
[k_sra] no i didn't pinch her.....i just got lucky! :) |
|
| |
Actually, [Fishrat], it really happened like that. babyhawk, and babybabyhawk used the microphone on my computer ... note the poor recording quality. |
|
| |
[Lbaf], I sent a recording to [World]. Maybe he'll post it when he wakes up.... |
|
| |
WOoHOo! - thanks, [k_sra]! |
|
| |
<laughs with glee at mayhem> |
|
| |
Glad to hear you took a bit of time out from fortbuilding to build something a bit more high maintenance, Lbaf. And well done to babyhawk for doing the bulk of the work. Strangely enough, that was always my experience of fortbuilding as a child - some kid would have the big idea, and it would always be left to others to do the donkeywork... |
|
| |
HAHAHAHAHAA...
ok, we thought you guys were thinking that. No, letsbuildafort is not my husband. He is my roomate with me and my husband & now my baby. We are just friends..:) Man, i didn't want to give away hints to my true identity, but i couldn't let you guys think that...;) |
|
| |
NO ... NONONONONONO ... I'm just roommates with [babyhawk] and her husband ... we just live in the same house ... oh god .. My crush lies squarely with [k_sra] ... |
|
| |
[um.. 'fort, you're checking the apartment ads, right?] |
|

// [um.. 'fort, you're checking the apartment ads, right?]// |

|
| |
Worldgineer does that number only work in the U.S.?
I phoned early this morning and it sounded like you saying leave a message, but it's hard to tell. |
|
| |
world tells me it works for the entire globe! |
|
| |
Amos, thanks for your web-space. saved my sanity. |
|
| |
[2 fries], you made it through. Looks like it's world-accessable but probably only US-free. |
|
| |
[all], 3 new sound clips are up - [k_sra]'s lovely voice and less-than-lovely vocal stylings, [2 fries] through an intercom, and if the 3rd one's [po] then I'm [UnnaBubba]. |
|
| |
Now I'm gonna have to call-in and beat [k_sra]'s measly belch ... and [futurebird] you sound GREAT. What studio did you record that at? |
|
| |
14 'bakers up so far. I'm excited by the gusto with which you've all embraced this idea. And yet still nobody has tried my Red Cabbage Milkshake. Except possibly k_sra, judging by her audio clip. Fickle fickle fickle. |
|
| |
It was green cabbage, if you must know, and what a lousy burp that was. Musta been nerves! : ) |
|
| |
Love [po]'s voice. She's a lot sexier than I imagined... |
|
| |
Oh gawd, I don't really sound like that, do I?
Do I? |
|
| |
Like 2 drinks shy of a dialysis machine? |
|
| |
You don't sound bad, [2fries]. Lemme go listen again... |
|
| |
Come to think of it, you *do* sound a bit like [po]. Creepy. |
|
| |
I hope my nationality doesn't make you hear me as Speedy Gonzalez. |
|
| |
Pretty much anytime, [k_sra]. |
|
| |
But everybody loves Speedy! [link] |
|
| |
Alright. Gimme your best shot. :P - both of you |
|
| |
I was grinning at k_sra, but I love a challenge...
hmmh, 6 hour time difference <counts hours on fingers> |
|
| |
[po] you should be an expert at that time conversion thing by now? ;) |
|
| |
//Gimme your best shot. :P// |
|
| |
You ought not say such things... especially to [po]. |
|
| |
After the "right-hand drive Suzuki" fiasco, I THINK I can take a dishing-out. Just recieved my leathers today too *sniff* mmmm-leathery. |
|
| |
New sound clip: [Asta] left a message saying hello and goodbye. |
|
| |
[Asta] feel free to send me an e-mail if you'd like to chat. |
|
| |
(later) Sound clip removed at [Asta]'s request. Looks like we won her back (for now...) |
|
| |
[Asta] I think it's sad that you feel contempt and disappointment with your bakery experiences. Personally I think you should stick around for a bit longer, you may get to like the place.
If however you do feel the need to depart, nice knowing you. You sound like a nice person.
Good luck! hASTA la vista... |
|
| |
Asta, on listening to your message, (several times) I feel sad you are leaving and that you didn't give enough time to get to know our ways. Perhaps sweetie, you are taking yourself just a tad too seriously. bye for now. |
|
| |
What [Worldgineer] said, [Asta], shoot me an e-mail sometime. We've all had our varying experiences on the HB. I seem to be in a bit of an idea slump as it were, and feel content just reading and annoing. Would certainly like to see you kick it with us some more! |
|
| |
See "Low Budget Spacecraft" by [normzone] if ya need a pick-me-up ... s'what I do ... |

i really liked her idea, and thought that all was nice. But maybe she was refering to some other comments on some other ideas?? I hope you don't leave [asta]....i am hoping to see some more ideas from you :) |

[world] I am currently on "holiday" at my parents house, unfortunatly my laptop has no microphone. As soon as I get back home I'll post a recording. |
|
| |
You can't get out of it that easily. Leave me a message: 877-571-5502. The message service sends me a sound file. Sorry about the boring greeting - I was at work and didn't want to draw attention. |

(thinks a moment) Wait - I get it. You don't want to make across-the-globe calls from your parents' house. You're excused... for now. |
|
| |
I feel humbled by your responses to my message. Thanks for the nice words. I deleted my idea that was the subject of name calling and negativity...not that it didn't DESERVE the comments. It was just hard to hear 'em. |
|
| |
I love it when an idea gets tossed around, but trashed around doesn't do it for me. Banter is good. Thanks for listening. Literally. |
|
| |
Name calling is never called for, but negativity is sometimes a product of some unwritten rules around here. I'm sure you've lurked enough to learn a few of them, but I've linked to [krelnik]'s always helpful FAQ file. |
|
| |
We're only human. Well, some of us. And sometimes so senseless things, like forget their "3 am obligations" *cough_sra* |
|
| |
World/Asta: I remember checking krelnik's helpful FAQ section for the first time, just after waugs told me that one of my ideas was "evil". I've never quite been the same since. <sinister laugh> |
|
| |
didn't answer at 3 a.m. either... |
|
| |
I know ... I missed it, I was trying on my leathers and starting the break-in process. I got some new pics up on my profile page if you wanna see what I was doing with my time last night ... And [k_sra] ... so beautiful, words fall painfully short. |
|
| |
To my surprise and delight there were three new messages this morning. I will post them immediately. This tells me there may be some still out there - please hurry, there is only a day or two left on my voicemail trial. |
|
| |
[Klaatu], lovin' the sound. |
|
| |
Just for the record, the po file is not po's voice. The Thumb file is not Thumb's voice either. |
|
| |
And po does not have a cockney accent. It's more South London than East. |
|
| |
OK, I confess. the thumbwax one is mine - I do hope he forgives me! |
|
| |
[Klaatu] are you Bruce Campbell? ... and [Egbert] ... thats just classic ... now I await [DrC]'s impression of [Egbert] |
|
| |
That's me up there. I sound a bit Frank Butcher cos of the sore throat but you get the general ideal. |
|
| |
Narf. Not really. Is it finally [UnaBubba]? |
|
| |
I think the "somebody" is UB, although the literary reference escapes me. |
|
| |
And po - I knew that. ; ) |
|
| |
agree, egbert - cannot understand those *english* inflections very well though. |
|
| |
Odd that there was very little discussion of UB after he posted (he is the "somebody"). Quite close to the voice I'd imagined. |
|
| |
Oh, and that just isn't fair, [pluterday]. |
|
| |
[pluterday] is nothing if not unfair. |
|
| |
Oh, dear—I was talking to that scarecrow in the field.
Oh, my <tears> I'll never forgive myself! Never—never—never! |
|
| |
//You ought not say such things... especially to [po].// |
|
| |
Lesson learned the hard way on that ... |
