Nothing as a kid. Now I listen to a detuned playlist of fascinating, but dry science/history/tech videos.
My current rotation is Anton Petrov, Sean Wilsey, Red Wrench Films, and Curious Droid, all played at 85% speed, 95% pitch.
Edit 95 pitch, not 90.
Very intriguing answer ;) If you'll indulge me for a momen, can you tell me more about how you came to decide on those tweaks
Been working on some psychoacoustics stuff recently so this is very appropos
I slowed it down because it's more sedate sounding. Even though these videos have relatively even tonal qualities, they sometimes speak fairly quickly. I adjusted the pitch only enough to reduce the distortion from the speed shift I just checked and the numbers are actually 85/95, not 85/90. 90% pitch is too unnatural sounding.
What do you use to change the pitch and speed?
