My sister is a specialist teacher for hearing-impaired primary school

children. As part of her curriculum she includes music and in

particular, nursery rhymes etc for the younger children. She would like

them to be able to sing these at home with and/or for their parents. For

those children with non-hearing-impaired parents, this is not a problem

but many of the children also have hearing-impaired parents. Therefore

she would like to produce a CD of her singing for the children to take

home and use. I would really appreciate any help members can give me as

I am not a professional musician or recording engineer.
1) She will be singing unaccompanied (she is a trained singer and is

perfectly competent to do this) in an alto register to avoid any

distraction for the children from accompaniments etc. Does anyone have

any suggestions about this? (eg effects for recording, effects for the

headphone mix etc)
2) This one's a bit more specialist so you may not be able to help -

hearing impairment often starts with loss of high frequency response.

The obvious thing would seem to be to boost these but I don't know if

that would be correct. Does anyone know?
Any comments on any other aspects of this project would also be more

than welcome.
Hopeful regards,

Simon
