Electronic Voice Phenomena:

What EVP Is All About

     Tesla Research Labs: Electronic Voice Phenomena, or EVP, are MYSTERIOUS VOICES captured through the use of electronic audio equipment. EVP does not make use of psychics, priests or religious groups, seances, or living mediums, but relies on scientific testing methods.

     My research shows that EVP was first noticed in the early 1950's. Since the discovery of EVP there have been many scientific tests and experiments done by many researchers around the world. All of the independent research done has come up with the same outcome, which is the recording of MYSTERIOUS VOICES. Researchers do not know for sure where the VOICES come from.

     Through reasoning all signs appear to point to the DEAD as the originators of the communications. If the VOICES did not want earthly humans to know about them they simply would not try to communicate with humans! The VOICES want us to know they exist and are trying desperately to get the attention of the living. We the living are the ones that have no time or interest in communicating with them!

     The basic scientific approach must include repeatability. In the past, communications have not been repeatable, but by using electronic equipment and proven scientific methods we can have repeatable results within a set range.

     Using the methods, equipment and experiments developed since the early 1950's, it becomes a relatively simple task to get reliable communications with the VOICES! Repeatability comes very quickly using the tape recorder. Once you have made contact and have set up communications with one particular VOICE , treat this voice as you would a family member, with respect and dignity. This will help add to your success rate and communication repeatability. Ask the VOICE their name and make a new friend of them. Usually, once you make a friends with the VOICE, communications with that VOICE become easier and easier---as if the VOICES are waiting for you to talk to them.

     The process used to communicate with the EVP LIFEFORM IS very simple and straight forward. Most people already own the electronic equipment required to communicate with the EVP LIFEFORMS: a standard cassette tape recorder and accessories (yes, all that is required to investigate and communicate with an unknown lifeform is a tape recorder!). The tape recorder and accessories used should be of the highest quality you can afford. If you use high quality tape recording equipment the results are high quality recordings.

         1) The Tape recorder/Microphone method is the simplest. We start by getting all the equipment together. We will need the following:

         a) A cassette tape recorder, or any type of tape recorder, battery or AC electric powered. A battery powered tape recorder with new batteries is preferred.

         b) A new blank cassette tape. Any blank tape to match your tape recorder, high quality, low noise is preferred.

     c) A microphone to use with the tape recorder. A high quality, sensitive microphone is preferred.

         d) A clock, watch or stopwatch to time 1 minute intervals. We want to time the interval between asking a question and recording a answer. If your tape recorder has a tape counter you can use that, or you could just count to yourself from 0 to 60.

         e) A writing pad and pen or pencil. Prepare a list of questions you want to ask the unknown lifeform, it is much easier to conduct the communication from a prewritten outline. A typical outline would be something like this:

         "GOD creator of all please make this communication possible, thank you. Hello my name is ALEX. I know you can hear me, please answer me. I am testing this method of communication and would like to talk to you. My name is ALEX, what is your name please? I will be listening for 1 minute for your name, thank you".

         f) A location to try the experiment. A location with known Paranormal activity is a bonus but not required. The experiment can be performed anywhere with or without known Paranormal activity.

         g) People to conduct the experiment. One person is really all that is required but two is better, the more people present for the communication the more witnesses there are to it.

         2) Once we have all our equipment together we test the equipment, make sure everything is operating correctly before starting the communication.

         a) Set up the equipment at the particular location you are interested in.

     b) Explain the rules to all the people present. One person is chosen to conduct the session, everybody else should remain silent during the communication. Everybody should have a copy of the outline to follow.

         c) Tell everybody to be as quiet as possible through out the session and follow the instructions or outline, the communication session is about to start. The session starts with the Leader turning on the tape recorder and says the following:

     1) The name of the leader _____

     2) The name of any other researchers present _____, _____, _____

     3) The day, date and time _____, _____, _____

     4) The building location, address, and the room ______________________

     5) The communication session number _____

     6) List all of the equipment you are using _____,_____, _____, _____

     7) Speak aloud the question you want to ask the unknown lifeform.

     8) Wait 30 seconds - 1 minute for a answer. Everyone in the room is silent for this time period while recording for a possible answering VOICE.

     9) Repeat 7 and 8 three times.

     10) This is the end or session number _____ , the time is _____

     14) Turn off the tape recorder

     The session is about 10 minutes long and you repeat your questions or statements about 5 - 7 times. Rewind the tape to the starting point and play it back to listen for any unknown lifeforms that might have answered our questions.

     The voice and or voices of the paranormal lifeforms sound very strange at first but are easily recognizable with practice. The simplest methods is to listen with headphones and turn up the volume to the highest volume you are comfortable with, concentrating on the background noise recorded in the session. You are listening for any changes in the volume, pitch, rhythm, tone, timbre, or speed. The VOICE varies greatly from ours in all of these areas. The Voices are mixed in with the background noise, and usually about the same volume. That is why the voices are easy to miss during playback of the tape. Most Paranormal lifeform voices communicated with through the use of this method sound about the same.

     The lifeform's voice does appear to reflect its mood or state of feeling. Some voices during communications have verbally appeared to be pleased, displeased, bored amused, etc. The timbre of most paranormal lifeform voices is about the same. The paranormal voices sound monotone, flat and or compressed . There is not much of a low frequency component in a paranormal voice. Basically it is lacking bass and is rich in treble sounds. The paranormal lifeform voices are very complex. We depend upon the pickup device or microphone to perceive the paranormal voice. The type of pickup device or microphone effects the reception of a voice in the low or high frequency range.

     The communications we recorded during the session does not appear to have anything but NORMAL BACKGROUND NOISE on it. The normal background noises or sounds were picked up by the microphone we were using. The voices are probably there, but we did not find them yet. The voices sometimes appear as noise or are in the noise. We must listen very carefully at first to hear the voices. What we are doing is training our mind and body to identify the voices.

     I usually replay and listen to the tape several times. Usually I use a 1 minute answer time period, and I listen to this answer period several times. When I find a change in the volume, tone, or general timbre of the noise this is usually a voice. Some of the voices are easily heard the first time I listen to them. Knowing what to listen for is a major factor in determining if you have communicated with the voices. I have reviewed session tapes that at first appeared to not contain voices, but upon closes inspection I found several voices. The voices that are very low in volume appear to be mixed in with the background noise. At first until you are trained the voices sound like the noise. Do not worry about this, the paranormal voices are so different from our human voice that once you hear a paranormal voice you will never forget how it sounds. This also makes it a lot easier for you with respect to future communications.

     The idea is to train our mind and body to hear the paranormal voices in the noise. This sounds hard but is in fact a simple learning process. The process is the same one we use when we hear several conversations at the same time.

     We can tune into only one of the several conversations we hear and or hear all of the conversations but we understand only the one we want to. We tune all of the other conversations out and concentrate on the one we want to hear. Same applies to hearing a paranormal voice in the noise: we want to tune out the noise and tune in the paranormal voice. It does not take very long for our mind and body to be trained to hear the paranormal voices. This training is really a matter of hearing a paranormal voice and listening to it a few times. Upon repeated listening to a paranormal voice our mind and body becomes very accustom to hearing them. Once you hear the voices you will always be able to recognize them in the future. Finding and hearing your first voice is the hard part, after the first contact it becomes easier and easier to communicate with the paranormal voices.

     Listen to the taped 1 minute answer period several times. This is not only for the purpose of trying to find or hear a voice but the more we playback and listen to a session tape the better the quality of the recording becomes. Dubbing the original session tape also enhances the quality of the original session tape. The forth or fifth generation of dubbed tape is usually the best being of higher quality that the original tape. This in itself is very strange, non-understandable event.

     Every audio expert in the world will tell us that the highest quality tape recording is the first recording. All generations of recordings dubbed from an original become degraded more and more with each successive generation. The original is the best and it only goes down hill from there. All successive re-recordings or dubbed generations lose tonal quality, in many aspects. The noise becomes louder, the volume diminishes a bit, and there is electronic and mechanical noise added by the re-recording process. This is why the first tape recording must be of highest quality possible for with each successive generation of re-recording we get a lower quality recording.

     This is not so when it comes to a tape with a paranormal voice recorded on it.

     A tape recording which contains a paranormal communication or voice increases in tonal quality with each successive re-recording. It also increases its quality with each successive play back. The more we rewind and play back and listen to a tape recorded session the higher the quality of the original tape becomes. This is totally opposite of what we know to be true but it is true! If at first you do not find a voice on the original session tape try playing it back several times and or re-recording it. This process is generally called "developing" a tape. When we develop a tape, we increase the quality of any paranormal lifeforms voice that might be on it.

     A developed tape containing a voice is the perfect teaching tool. You can listen to the original and the developed tapes and hear what you did not hear the first time. Listen and compare the similarities and differences. That way the next time you listen to a session tape you will have already trained your mind and body to hear and understand them. Multiple voices are quite common, some voices can be in conversation with each other and can be recorded and monitored.

     Will the government consider this eavesdropping and therefore illegal---falling under the same laws as wiretapping, bugging, and the laws governing the monitoring and reception of any communication not originally intended for your reception? That would be a rather convenient and a effective means of keeping all research and findings in this area a TOP SECRET!!
