Please try these list of words out to see which are working and which could use some improvement . I have left a scoring guide below. Lets make Orpheus even better!!!

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Paralinguistic Word Evaluation Table (Podcast, 1โ€“10 Scale)

Criteria Description Rating (1โ€“10) Notes / Examples
Sound Clarity Is the sound clean, clear, and free from distortion, static, or mic artifacts? E.g., a muffled gasp or clipped moan lowers believability.
Tone & Emotion Match Does the tone of the sound align with the emotion being conveyed? A laugh should sound amused, a sigh should feel weary, etc.
Pacing / Timing Does the sound come at a natural and contextually appropriate moment? An awkwardly timed whimper can feel out of place.
Volume Control Is the loudness appropriate for the emotion and conversation context? A too-loud moan may sound forced or jarring.
Authenticity Does the sound feel spontaneous and real, not acted or exaggerated? Forced giggles or dramatic sighs reduce immersion.
Context Clarity Can the listener understand why the sound was made based on surrounding dialogue? A gasp with no setup can confuse listeners.

๐Ÿ” Example Evaluation (<sigh> after an emotional story)

Criteria Rating (1โ€“10) Notes
Sound Clarity 9 Clear mic, gentle breath, no noise
Tone & Emotion Match 10 Sigh sounded full of resignation and emotion
Pacing / Timing 10 Perfect pause before and after โ€” let it land
Volume Control 9 Quiet enough to feel personal, but clearly heard
Authenticity 10 Didn't sound staged โ€” felt like a real moment
Context Clarity 10 Came after a vulnerable story, listener gets it
