@I_ll_try_anything I moved this here so as not to distract from the other thread.
Iām a massive tinglehead! I remember my grandmother used to fold cellophane bags and crisp packets up all small, and I can remember the soft crinkles when she did it. Iād be trying to focus on doing a crossword or a wordsearch and my brain would just be goo. I used to get it when my Mum helped me blowdry my thick hair after swimming as well.
I thought I was the only one, or it was just generic blushing and everyone got it, but then I saw a mention of it on Russell Howardās Good News and I was likeā¦ āwait, I think I get that tooā. Looked it up and unlocked the tingles.
Tingle naps are the best naps 
The above mentioned probably isnāt CCās best vampire video, this is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfrcAIiP4-Y
Then thereās his āsubjectā seriesā¦

My mum used to do my hair too when I was a kid and got the tingles. Never thought much of it until I got with my OH and she likes to kiss my neck, nibble my ears and whisper to me. I just melt.
I also produce sound design and ambient music for my own amusement and have loads of environmental recordings that help me get to sleep. Not so much tingly as comforting.

Iāve toyed around with making my own ASMR content as well and get loads of compliments on my voice (Iām south-west UK, although Iāve passed for north London before now 
) . The problem I find is that a lot of microphones seem to make me sound really nasal, even if Iām not a nasal speeaker, so I just get frustrated with it and give up. I also find talking without a conversation really weird.
Oh, and my inner Domme comes out and wants to torture with tingles, which is possibly not entirely a bad thing

I donāt know what a North London accent sounds like but I know Bristol and have friends in Devon and my first thought then was Miriam Margolyes voicing the old Cadburys Caramel adverts .. I remember her voice could silence a room.
I never record my own voice but issues could be the mic, environment, maybe the pre-amp or maybe you could do some work with EQ to target certain frequencies.

Iām Bristolian, although Iām from north Bristol so the accent is softer and more ātip of the tongueā than it is in the south or east of the city. Best example I can find is this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wosinmfH4Pw
I can safely say that I do have what I can perhaps call my āMariam momentsā as well, and Iāve definitely silenced a room on more than one occasion. Not intentionally ā I didnāt know UK-Australia relations were that much of a riveting topic for some people, but here we are!
I think thatās just it, it seemed more of a technical thing for me than a āmeā problem. Iām a writer, I gathered that perhaps I should just stick to what I know best.

Yes I recognise that accent though I doubt Iād be able to pick out the variations. When I was younger we spent a lot of time between Stratford and Bristol. Miriams a treasure. We were obsessed by Monkey as kids and she did most of the womens voices in that. I hope when I get to her age I too can give not a single sh*t about what people think. Iām trying.
Its always worth learning new skills. If you wanted to jump into editing the sound you could do worse than Audacity or Pro tools First. Both are free but professional level.

Not giving a damn takes time and practice. I wish I could advise, but even if I say I donāt, I often do. More deeply than I care to admit.
Thanks for your advice. Iāll have to dig my microphone out and play around with them sometime. Definitely not today! Iāve got a big piece on the table this week, my first of three for Enhance the UKās āLove Loungeā.

Put a pair of cargo shorts on earliert that i havenāt worn for a few years to go out in, put my hand in a pocket and felt something folded up and shiny, assuming it was a Ā£5 or Ā£10 note, it turned out to be a doggy poo bag! Just my luck! 
Itās lasted well cos itās been through the washer at least once!

I was convinced I read yesterday that you said you had taken off the G string and put it in a drawer . I assume because it was too hot. May be it was in my dreamās, that was why I commented. Sorry if i was wrong. It does sound very sexy though. @Wurger

I did remove the G-string because I was too hot @steve19 ā¦ I just wondered why wearing a G-string makes me confident love? xxxx
Just a random question to throw out thereā¦
Has anyone starting receiving email notifications of posts and comments in the Forum.
It started yesterday and the first one was Mrs @Wurger replying to @steve19 about a G-string in a drawer. At first, as it was an email, I thought how on earth has she found my address (not that I minded too much)ā¦but then more starting coming through, and I have had more this morning from various people in various posts.
I never subscribed to receive notifications, to my knowledge, and was just wondering if anyone else has started getting them?

Yes me too! I had a few pop up from @WillC and @Stacy2 I wondered what was going on
