Got Noise?
[dropcap1]F[/dropcap1]orgot to mention that there are a couple of good resources for audio alerts that I use often.
- The first one is freesound.org. If you are looking for a bang, clack, whistle, bell, gong, horse whinny or, well, whatever… you’ll probably find it here.
- The other one I use is AT&T’s Lab’s Natural Voices. This is where the voices in the AVP alerts came from. You can make your own by entering text, and then it turns that text into a sound file. Lots of voice and even accent choices.
Know of other good ones? Feel free to leave a description and link in the comments below. Trade ’em well…
You can also try http://www.neospeech.com text to speech online, they usually have a 50 free word trial going on.
Forgot to mention it has setting to be able to change volume, pitch and speed.
