I've tried slowing it down, speeding it up, reversing it, using an equalizer to isolate the voices a bit and various combinations of all of those, and I can't find anything that seems like a hidden message Sad

that's alright Marathon Man, but do tell, how many voices could you isolate?

You don't need a musical ear Smile

I used Audacity Razz

Here's how it goes:

First note (the one that really gets your attention): An E, right above middle C. Has a bit of reverb/"wahwah" to it.

The note in the background after "this is how it all begins": Still an E, a bit distorted

After "..there was only one" - Sounds like E, but possibly F

After "the fate we escaped" - sounds like rapidly switching between E and F

The rest of the notes in the background are hard to isolate - but I can almost certainly tell you they're all between Middle D and Middle F/F#.

Not sure what we can get out of that though.

Is it saying "through others of us"? Or "through others' eyes"? The second one seems to more accurately fit "The Wells of History."

What it makes me think of is Norse Mythology, where Odin traded one of his own eyes to drink from Mimir's well, gaining omniscience and wisdom.

I believe y'all are just WANTING it to sound a certain way, but I don't know because I'm at work and can't listen.

At home I have a almost-professional grade audio editing software (Cakewalk Sonar 4) and I will try to dish it out if there's something to it. I'm pretty good with the program so I should be able to get something Surprised

It would be interesting to split the audio channels apart so we can just hear the higher pitched and lower pitched voices seperately. Can someone do that with the audio editing software?

Yeah I definitely could once I get home, if I remember, haha.
