I would like to know if people with chromesthesia can experience the same colors when listening the same sounds.
thanks

Hi Elena
Thanks for the question
The answer is for the most part yes. Quite a number of people report that the experience is consistent. However this is not true for all synesthetes.
Gday. I have Timbre->Colour, and can say to a large degree I see the same colour for a sound everytime. However I am sometimes suprised that the colour of a singer’s voice can seem to bend slightly depending upon what else I am hearing. i.e. Rhianna, who’s voice appears a greeny teal colour in most songs, is greeny green green in the chorus of “Only girl in de world”.
Also, incidentally as I have recently seen Kate Miller-Heidke live I can say on CD she sounds blue-er. Something in the mastering/production process, I wager.
