what do you mean here? "own voice patches?" You recorded the sound
of your voice and derived midi instruments of that raw material?
(sorry, probably dumb question, maybe you won't even understand it)

you can speak at a bigger distance from the mic, like 10cm and more.
I also used to sing very close to the mic but with some distance, the
raw sound is much better. You get rid of the "proximity effect" and
need less EQ later on. Well, my 2c. I'm not an audio recording engineer.

Do you play with a keyboard? I mean a MIDI piano keyboard.
I ask because what you, and others on the list, do with a linux box
is impressive. And I wonder why I can't do the same. Maybe input
tools I sometimes think. Tools matter a lot. Or maybe it's just
talent. :-)

Thanks for sharing those details, it's very good material!
The linux audio scene is amazing...
