      Wow, tastes differ quite a lot here. I also liked Nuno's warm tone more than the other's harsh tone. That buzz and noise doesn't bother me at all. I think a higher pitched tone works well for fast fiddly bits, but not for these slow human voice like melodies, in which case I prefer the warmer (lower) tone.
