Testing Recordings of Children

A test of recording children's voices to ensure pickup is of sufficient quality and volume level so that it is workable on the Blog site.

Firstly a traditional nursery rhyme spoken by a Year 2 Child:

Secondly an altered nursery rhyme showing an example of how forgetting the words actually adds to a recording, whereas editing everything to be perfect can detract from results. Read by a Year 1 child:

We also have a short installer test recording from Norwood School testing the setup in the hall, the recording is not full quality yet, this was an internal test for their school speakers:
