Article

GLaDOS

Portion used

About 5 seconds are used; while the single audio sample this was pulled from is about 30 seconds, there is approximately 10 minutes total of similar dialog in the game, spoken/synthesized in the same manner. Thus, it is believed this falls within "less than 10%" of the total work for audio samples.

Low resolution?

Lowest-quality OGG rerecording of sample

Purpose of use

Identification of the way that McLain's voice is digitized and modulated to compliment the discussion on this presented in the article.

Replaceable?

While users have created their own means of recreating the effects of the digitization and modulation that could be used to demonstrate the effect, this modified performance by McLain and Valve specifically for the GLaDOS article has no free replacement.
