Screen shot of collected voice clips using basic Azam Software functionality for Coma use

In the example below, Azam software has been used to collect voice clips from friends and relatives from around the world. No morphing or special effects are being used. They have all downloaded a copy of Azam onto their PCs and emailed a 3-7 minute recording to Arnie (the son of the patient). John Jane and Josh decided to create one recording together. Uncle Dan did not have access to a PC so he recorded his message onto a normal magnetic tape and posted it to Arnie. Alternatively, Arnie could have used the Azam Phone Function to record Uncle Dan's message directly onto a PC as part of a preplanned phone conversation. Arnie has copied Uncle Dan's tape into Azam and merged all of these recordings into one Azam record which can be seen at the end of the list. When this merged recording has been produced, Arnie will export it as track 1 of a CD he will burn using the Nero software product. The patient is quite a fan of Celine Dion, so Arnie will download a music track (Azam is not used to do this) and he will create a track 2 on the CD he will burn. The finished 2 track CD and an MP3 player will be taken to the hospital.

Screen shot of collected voice clips using advanced Azam Software functionality

In the example below, Azam software has been used to collect voice clips from friends and relatives from around the world as described in the first example above. Some morphing and special effects are being used. Arnie has created four merged recordings. He will export them as 4 tracks on a CD he will burn using the Nero software product. He has decided to follow the recommendations as presented on the www.azamit.com coma page and produce a 7 track CD as shown below (after the Azam screenshot). The finished 7 track CD and an MP3 player will be taken to the hospital.

When the finished 7 Track CD has been created, based on the above recordings, it will contain:

Track 1 Normal audio voice clips from four merged Azam recordings (closest family members).

Track 2 Favorite song (A ballad, for example, from Celine Dion).

Track 3 Normal audio voice clips from four more merged Azam recordings (other family members).

Track 4 Favorite song (A fast and loud song, for example, from Madonna).

Track 5 Remaining audio voice clips which have been merged into one Azam recording (friends etc).

Track 6 Morphed audio voice clips from 1 or 2 close family members.

Track 7 Rendition from uplifting holy book of the patient's religious beliefs. The patient is a practising Catholic, so it is decided that Father O'Donnell, who is also a friend of the family, will read 5 minutes from the Bible. (If you would like suggestions on what to read to a patient based on their particular Faith, please refer here).
