[Contest] Get Your Voice into The Dominion of Men

[MasterOfNone]

Not bad. Could you try all of them?

Swordsmen
Bowmen
Longbowmen
Horsemen
Mounted archers
Peasants
Mercenaries
Mercenary Cavalry
Engines of War
Hirelings
Elvellyn

and your samples were mainly in 44khz. They need to be in 22khz or we cannot use them. Thanks!

[Aradan]

When MoN says "not bad", that's generally better than other people's "great".

The samples do indeed sound good, it'd be great if you could try all of them.

[MasterOfNone]

Yes, I'm English and "Not bad!" can mean "that's really quite good!". I had to explain to an American about what "sad" means, informally, the other day! (as in "you're a sad person if you prefer modding to socializing"). They keep thinking it means unhappy!

[Víkingurr]

Alright. I'll try all of them straight after work.

[GRANTO]

good luck with it guys

[Yitzhakofeir]

I would naturally suppose you need voices with English accents, however I am Israeli... I was wondering if you'd have any use for that type of accent?

[MasterOfNone]

Yitz, please feel free to have a go with a couple from the list above - but, yes, we are looking for a sort of English-Scandinavian accent for the final culture: Northmen.

Víkingurr, are you still going to try them?

[ASSASSIN1110]

i will give it a go...when my cold goes away and i get my new mic

[Dictator Of The Roman Republic]

Just give it a go

[Mordae]

I'll record all of them tomorrow.
I have pretty high quality recording equipment and a Finnish accent to top it off.

[Mordae]

Here they are! Hope you like them

[Aradan]

Thank you!. We'll listen to them as soon as possible!

[Aradan]

Any chance you can try these voices with a softer voice and less... menace and grunt? They sound a bit barbaric atm, I think.

Just try to be natural, with a slightly 'load' voice (you're on a battlefield etc), no need to stress it trying create some specific effect.

[Bladvak]

Is this still open ?

[Aradan]

Yes, still looking for Northmen voices.

[Bladvak]

Let me know what you think.

[MasterOfNone]

Vikingurr, please submit your voices. We'd really like to hear them.


Thank you to all those who've had a go - and please submit them if you've not yet done so, whether you've been asked above or if you've never done so before.

Read the OP for details.

Thank you!

[Víkingurr]

Wow, I'm so sorry. Something came up and I had to travel to another country for months. True story. If you're still interested in hearing my recordings I'm more than happy to do it.
Sorry about the looooong response time.

[Aradan]

We're very interested!
