Hot on the heels of yesterday’s adventure, I decided to spend a little time this afternoon repeating the diversion, this time using a huge chunk of text culled from a large number of spam messages waiting to be deleted from my queue. I copied and pasted enough spam into Notepad to make a respectable .25 second long WAV file and using the plugin native to Audacity, stretched it out to about 15 seconds in length. I then proceeded to abuse it right thoroughly using a number of VST plugins, before dumping it into PaulStretch and performing the usual magic there.
Again, it’s not anything extraordinary, but at least it’s a time-consuming way to create some original beds of noise for studio endeavors.
