Re: [microsound] voices and equalisation

That's an interesting idea.  Is it high frequency noise that you're using?  
I was just reading something similar to that on the mastering webboard.  
Somebody said...
"I remember years ago being told that most people could not reliably 
distinguish between hiss and actual musical content in the higher registers, 
and that many people, when confronted with hiss in those upper registers, 
thought that it was musical content and liked the recording better."

Here's the complete thread...

Are you using constant noise or creating some kind of musical element with 
it?
