Hear how a voice sounds herea computed acoustic demo

Your voice would sound much as it does on Earth.

We do not yet have a temperature for this world, and its atmosphere is unknown, so its acoustics cannot be modelled. In Earth-like air a human voice carries as you know it, and without the temperature that is as far as the physics will take us.
