E.V.P., an acronym for paranormal studies, stands for Electronic Voice
Phenomena. It is widely believed by some people that audio tape recorders and other electronic recording devices can
actually record the voices of people who have already passed from this life
to the next. Such audio equipment could include disk recorders, tape recorders
and other portable recording devices and are referred to as tools. However, it remains unclear as to what the
sources of the sounds really are. These could be the sounds of spirits from
another realm but either way, this discovery has sparked the interest of
people who are already studying the concepts of parapsychology and other
disciplines of the supernatural.
Through recording devices, the EVP investigation can be studied for
longer periods than usual because the recording can be played over and over again. It is also an inexpensive means of extracting
information, as opposed to using more time-consuming methods. As for researchers
performing investigations using EVP, this provides them
an enhanced means for listening. As long as the audio device is capable of
recording sounds for an expansive amount of time and that the size of the
device has the needed portability for carrying from one site to the next, it
can be used for recording E.V.P. Furthermore, it is essential to review the
battery power of the device before actual recording. Before undergoing any
task or project, you need to make sure the battery is fully-charged and up
to the long hours ahead.
Keeping Track of the Supernatural Recordings
First of all, before you begin the session, you need to start with a simple
prayer or a few words of affirmation. It is important to remember that
during this exercise, it will be as if you are courteously asking a guest
the necessary questions. You don’t need to ask the questions one after the
other, or in a hurried manner. It is important for you to make room for a
pause or a period of silence, which can also be use for evaluation much
later.
When you choose an audio tape for example, one full side of it will be
enough for you to complete your initial experiment or at least to allow
yourself to be familiarized with the ongoing task. Starting and
ending the experiment with a prayer will help retain the peace within the
location. The right concluding prayer or affirmation will help to eradicate any
harmful energies or spirits from wreaking havoc on a particular site or
location, or disturbing those who are residing near the area.
Scouting for the right locations in E.V.P. experiments
Any location can be made suitable for your E.V.P investigations. Whether
you choose to experiment within your home or opt for an old haunted house,
you can search for paranormal evidences. Paranormal investigators follow
their own personal procedures when conducting the task. Various methods can
be personalized to suit the individual requirements of different
investigators. Many of these people scout for abandoned homes or even
cemeteries. However, the experiments don’t have to be limited to these.
It should not be limited to haunted sites alone but also in areas which are
prone to supernatural manifestations, such as the old church graveyard and
other areas with possible sightings. Since research has suggested that these
locations have higher connections to the energies of the Earth, you will be
able to gather more evidence in these areas than anywhere else.
Essential Data Analysis
After conducting all your sessions and tasks in the most appropriate
locations, it is now time to sit down and devote this period for the
analysis of the gathered data. You will be able to fully understand the
proofs which you have gathered only if you take the time and the effort to
accomplish evaluation processes. You need to review all your questions
during the recordings, carefully, one by one. This will allow you to assess
whether the device has actually obtained any evidence or any answers to
those questions. Of course, patience at this point is very important. Since
this experiment is far from magic, you cannot expect it to work the first
time that you want it to. However, even if you already picked up any
semblance of evidence it can be hard trying to analyze it for the first
time. If you are not among the fortunate ones to have obtained sufficient
evidence, it is always best to gather the device, scout another location,
and continue doing the experiment again.
It will also be useful to use a PC which has a spectral analysis feature.
This will help you boost up the pauses during the recordings, to see if any
evidence has come through. It also helps if your audio devices are
extra-sensitive to even the slightest sounds during the recordings. However,
if you don’t have the necessary tools and modern recording equipment yet, you can even
use simple tape recorders and dicta phones. E.V.P. recording takes a lot of
time and skill to master, so it is important to be patient and to not to
give up easily.
