Examples of soundsound Thus, this term represents the sound generation due purely to the dynamics of the vortex centroids. That is, there is a commonality of effect consistent with this region's role in the integration of sound and meaning. The starting point for each part is either a random or a previously stored sound. Some demonstrated the use of technical language, for example 'it did sound very like a scale'. They were then told to put the sounds together to say the whole word. This is a new synthesis technique that can generate sounds from slow movements of mechanical systems. Further, there is no sound theoretical basis for the two heuristics that it uses. In practice, pupils found the process of selecting sounds relatively straightforward and unproblematic. Participants were tested and trained in small groups in a sound-attenuated room. The volume of sound, though not to any extent distorted, had suffered a diminution of perspective. Further, those sounds that were excluded from a child's phonemic inventory formed the pool of potential targets to be considered for treatment. Everyone is dependent on everyone else to produce sound resulting in a truly collaborative situation. He also found that children, unlike adults, make sound errors in the high frequency functional elements. Two types of voice-specific system are discussed here, both of which were developed for reasons other than sound manipulation. As this feature is often distinctive in consonants, it should be able to create ' cross-category ' feature-economy effects among all these various types of sounds.
