He was about to make a gas check on his flight when Todman's voice broke in: `` Sweeneys!!

His advice, his voice saying his poems, the fact that he had not so much as touched her -- on the contrary, he had put his head back and she had stroked his hair -- this was all new.

in reading, on platforms, even in the large auditorium of the Y.M.H.A., Poetry Center nights, his voice was intimate, thoughtful, and a trifle shy.

I was puzzled by the remark, then I recalled the voice of mild Professor Howard Griggs three years ago in a university lecture on primitive societies.

she would talk to him in a soothing voice about things his mother would have said were not nice and put her hands on him and kiss him passionately.

The twist lay in using Bing Crosby's voice on the sound track while leading man Eddie Bracken mouthed the words.

He composed songs and set them to music and sang them in a soft, melodious voice, and when his audience had had enough of music he would discourse on politics or tell stories of his western adventures guaranteed to excite the emotions of men and women alike.

Eileen got to dancing, just a little tiny dancing step to a hummed tune that you could hardly notice, and trying to pick up strange men, but each time I was ready to say to hell with it and walk out she'd pull herself together and talk so understandingly in that sweet husky voice about the good times and the happiness we'd had together and there I was back on the hook.

`` We were on our vacation in Canada '', Howard explained, in a muffled voice that must have been used to booming, `` and the news didn't catch up with us till we were nearly home.

he rose to put his greatcoat on and addressed Alex in a muted voice.

In the early 1950's, Smith, together with his distinguished colleague, George Trager ( so austerely academic he sometimes fights his own evident charm ), and a third man with the engaging name of Birdwhistell ( Ray ), agreed on some basic premises about the three-part process that makes communication: ( 1 ) words or language ( 2 ) paralanguage, a set of phenomena including laughing, weeping, voice breaks, and `` tone '' of voice, and ( 3 ) kinesics, the technical name for gestures, facial expressions, and body shifts -- nodding or shaking the head, `` talking '' with one's hands, et cetera.

Even with words coming too fast, they came on the music of the voice.

I think everybody is agreed that we need to hear some voice on the national level that would make some sense and in which we would have some confidence in following.

Or you could hope the parachute wouldn't open just so you could say you saw it not open, not because you meant any harm to Starkey Poe in his suit of red underwear, but mainly because you were tired of being an old maid -- a thing which cannot admit when it thinks it might be pregnant, but must stand the dizzy feeling all alone and go on like everything is all right instead of being able to say to somebody in a normal voice: `` I think I'm pregnant ''.

He imagined Sam's voice: `` George, what the hell goes on ''??

Mostly, it was fear, but this woman's voice didn't tremble and her hands were still on the coverlet.

Even her voice had taken on a more cultivated tone.

The Reader in A Modest Proposal " focuses on two aspects of A Modest Proposal: the voice of Swift and the voice of the Proposer.

Literary critics Barthes and Foucault suggest that readers should not rely on or look for the notion of one overarching voice when interpreting a written work, because of the complications inherent with a writer's title of " author.

Investigation of the afterlife also includes the study of ( among others ) cases of haunting, apparitions of the deceased ( including, in some cases, information conveyed by those same apparitions ), instrumental trans-communication ( recording of electronic voice phenomena on tape ), and mediumship.

The tempo of their arrangement was slowed to allow for the bagpipes, but it was based on Collins ': it began with a bagpipe solo introduction similar to her lone voice, then it was accompanied by the band of bagpipes and horns, whereas in her version she is backed up by a chorus.

As if she were weighed down with old age and worn out by grief, she walked slowly and when she approached the actual entrance to the sanctuary made two genuflections ; on the third she sank to the floor and taking firm hold of the sacred doors, cried in a loud voice: " Unless my hands are cuff off, I will not leave this holy place except on one condition: that I receive the emperor's cross as guarantee of safety ".

Magnavox ( Latin for " great voice ") is a US electronics company founded by Edwin Pridham and Peter L. Jensen, who invented the moving-coil loudspeaker in 1915 at their lab in Napa, California.

The Servodrive design increases output power, reduces harmonic distortion and virtually eliminates the loss of loudspeaker output that results from an increase in voice coil impedance due to overheating of the voice coil ( called power compression.

The most common form of loudspeaker uses a paper cone supporting a voice coil electromagnet acting on a permanent magnet, but many other types exist.

A signal from the studio mixing desk — such as a voice or instrument — is fed to a large high-fidelity loudspeaker located at one end of the echo chamber.

Four years later, in 1915, they built a dynamic loudspeaker with a voice coil, a corrugated diaphragm and a horn measuring with a aperture.

They then placed the loudspeaker on the laboratory's roof, and claims say that the amplified human voice could be heard away.

There are many designs for loudspeaker simulators, which emphasize different characteristics of the actual speaker, such as the voice coil's inductance, mechanical suspension compliance, and cone mass.

The loudspeaker broadcasts the voice or voices of those on the other end of the telephone line, while the microphone captures all voices of those using the speakerphone.

He played the voice heard over the factory loudspeaker system in episode five, and narrated the recaps at the beginning of episodes two, three, four and six.

In a loudspeaker, a diaphragm ( generally, but not exclusively cone shaped ) is the thin, semi-rigid membrane attached to the voice coil, which moves in a magnetic gap, vibrating the diaphragm, and producing sound.

A voice coil ( consisting of a former, collar, and winding ) is the coil of wire attached to the apex of a loudspeaker cone.

Typical modern hi-fi loudspeaker voice coils employ materials which can withstand operating temperatures up to 150 ° C, or even 180 ° C.

It rather efficiently but inconveniently transfers heat from the voice coil into the adhesive bonds of the loudspeaker, thermally degrading or even burning them.

The circuit then relies on the inductance of the loudspeaker to keep the HF component from heating up the voice coil.

* At 27 seconds into the piece, the sound of a female voice on a loudspeaker can be heard ; apparently an airport public address system.

A packet voice system can produce this low jitter in a number of ways:

Prior to ISDN, the telephone system was viewed as a way to transport voice, with some special services available for data.

ISDN is a circuit-switched telephone network system, which also provides access to packet switched networks, designed to allow digital transmission of voice and data over ordinary telephone copper wires, resulting in potentially better voice quality than an analog phone can provide.

In 1974, del Rosario invented the Sing Along System ( SAS ) composed of a microphone, amplifier and system that had the innovation of adding effects to the user's voice such as reverb.

" a handy multi-purpose compact machine which incorporates an amplifier speaker, one or two tape mechanisms, optional tuner or radio and microphone mixer with features to enhance one ’ s voice, such as the echo or reverb to stimulate an opera hall or a studio sound, with the whole system enclosed in one cabinet casing.

For instance, a major clause must display some structure that is the formal realization of a choice from the system of " voice ", i. e. it must be either " middle " or " effective ", where " effective " leads to the further choice of " operative " ( otherwise known as ' active ') or " receptive " ( otherwise known as " passive ").

After World War II, voice and radioteletype implementations of the message relay system were employed.

Back-End or deferred speech recognition is where the provider dictates into a digital dictation system, the voice is routed through a speech-recognition machine and the recognized draft document is routed along with the original voice file to the editor, where the draft is edited and report finalised.

The system is seen as a major design feature in the reduction of pilot workload, and even allows the pilot to assign targets to himself with two simple voice commands or to any of his wingmen with only five commands.

Results have been encouraging, and voice applications have included: control of communication radios, setting of navigation systems, and control of an automated target handover system.

A vocoder (, short for voice encoder ) is an analysis / synthesis system, used to reproduce human speech.

Vocal registration refers to the system of vocal registers within the human voice.

Before B-ISDN, the original ISDN attempted to substitute the analog telephone system with a digital system which was appropriate for both voice and non-voice traffic.

In telecommunication, an articulation score ( AS ) is a subjective measure of the intelligibility of a voice system in terms of the percentage of words correctly understood over a channel perturbed by interference.

An ALE radio system enables connection for voice conversation, alerting, data exchange, texting, instant messaging, email, file transfer, image, geo-position tracking, or telemetry.

A tactical communications system is a communications system that ( a ) is used within, or in direct support of, tactical forces, ( b ) is designed to meet the requirements of changing tactical situations and varying environmental conditions, ( c ) provides securable communications, such as voice, data, and video, among mobile users to facilitate command and control within, and in support of, tactical forces, and ( d ) usually requires extremely short installation times, usually on the order of hours, in order to meet the requirements of frequent relocation.

In 1942, Clark and his team completed the SIGSALY secure voice transmission system that included the first use of companding in a PCM ( digital ) system.

In civil aviation, a data-link system ( known as Controller Pilot Data Link Communications ) is used to send information between aircraft and air traffic controllers when an aircraft is too far from the ATC to make voice radio communication and radar observations possible.

To limit the number of wires required between two involved in exchanging voice calls, a system was built in which multiple DS0s are multiplexed together on higher capacity circuits.
