Most aren't familiar with the Greek phrases being used in this passage.
The word "people" in verse 1 is the same word as "multitude" in verse 6.
Please compare;
Rev. 19:1 ....a great voice of MUCH[4183] PEOPLE[3793]...
Rev. 19:6 ...the voice of a GREAT[4183] MULTITUDE[3793], and as the voice of many waters, and as the VOICE of mighty thunderings...
This matters, because the owner of the "voice of a multitude", "the voice of many waters", and "the voice of mighty thunderings" has already been identified throughout the Bible.
Dan. 10:6 "...HIS eyes as lamps of fire, and...HIS feet like in colour to polished brass, and the VOICE of HIS words like the VOICE OF A MULTITUDE.
Daniel identifies this person as having "brass" feet, and "fire" in His eye’s.
And Revelation in turn, identifies the exact owner of the person with such traits.
Rev. 2:18 "...the SON OF GOD, who hath his EYES like...FIRE, and his FEET [are] like fine BRASS;"
Rev. 1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and HIS VOICE as the sound OF MANY WATERS.
Jer. 10:13 When he uttereth HIS VOICE, [there is] a MULTITUDE OF WATERS in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
Jer. 51:16 When he uttereth [HIS] VOICE, [there is] a MULTITUDE OF WATERS in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
Eze. 1:24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise OF GREAT WATERS, as THE VOICE OF the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
Eze. 43:2 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and HIS VOICE [was] like a noise OF MANY WATERS: and the earth shined with his glory.
Rev. 14:2 And I heard a VOICE FROM HEAVEN, as the VOICE OF MANY WATERS, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
As you can see there is no doubt, the voice does not come from "people". That was a plain translation error. The word "multitude" should have been used like it does in all the other places. The owner of the voice belongs to "the Son of God".
