Designed Vocalizations Dataset — Third-Party Attribution & Notices ================================================================== The Designed Vocalizations Dataset is made available under CC BY 4.0 for the dataset compilation and the authors' original contributions, including metadata and original annotations. Designed audio clips may incorporate or be adaptations of third-party source sounds and therefore remain subject to the applicable source licenses identified per clip. The third-party sources' licenses and required attributions are listed below and, per clip, as columns in the source recordings (the `raw` config): `license`, `attribution_required`, `freesound_title`, `freesound_uploader`, `freesound_url`. Redistribution of this dataset must preserve this NOTICE file and the per-clip attribution metadata, and must comply with the license terms applicable to each source clip. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

The designed audio in this dataset is produced by applying effects processing to these sources. The effect-modified clips are adaptations or derivative works of the corresponding source sounds, where applicable, and remain subject to the attribution and other conditions of the source license recorded for each clip. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Processing tool ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The designed clips were produced using the Dehumaniser plugin (Krotos Audio) within a Cubase effect chain. Dehumaniser is a third-party commercial product; it was used only to generate processed audio outputs — no Dehumaniser software, code, plug-in assets, or proprietary preset parameter settings are redistributed with this dataset. Preset names have been anonymized (`preset_01`–`preset_47`) in the released dataset. For built-in Dehumaniser presets, the dataset lists only the generic effect types used (in `preset_info.dsp_modules`) — not their internal parameter settings. Full effect chains and parame
