Just playing with the speed adjustment of Sanyo TRC-2500 while listening to the song.
Varispeed can make a great singer sound even greater.
Usualy it is done by reducing speed of backing track while tracking the vocals and then bring backing track back to correct speed at playback. But then playback of vocal is at a higher ethereal speed than recording while everything sounds perfect with reference to backing track. For example a semitone worth of varispeed sounds great without giving away what is happening.
Not sure about Pink Floyd but reducing playback speed today at Sanyo TRC-2500 made the voice sound more common and bringing back to normal speed made a more ethereal feel.
So could it be that normal speed is varispeed?
Or if someone records a common voice at lower speed would it sound ethereal at the normal playback speed?
Why does varispeed sound so different? Eg ABBa. Like a time machine making you sing like a younger person? Is it formant shift?
Is it a time machine?
