Exploring the frequency modulation of Dionne Warwick with a tape player at half speed


While listening to I save a little prayer for you - Dionne Warwick, the magnetic tape speed was reduced from 7ips to 3.5ips just for fun.


The vibrato of the great singer could be heard in detail at the end of phrases. Surprisingly the frequency deviation is about up and down a semitone from the carier note. Like an ambulance.


Is this part of the secret of a great exercised sweet voice?
