Here is a sample of a Woman's & Man's International Voice that will be used in the AL Priority. Please dont tell me that you dont like the voice because we will have voice options available at a later date. Once all the radar integration is finalized and I get a listing of all the words and terms that need spoken I will hire a professional voice over artist to record voices for our English customers.

The Point is the system will have an alert sound to get your attention, then will state the name of the gun and the location (ahead or behind) and then continue with some sort of alert sound.

The sounds have not been finalized but will most likely be customizable as well.

I prefer the woman and I think its fine until we get our own voices done. Its clear enough to let you know what the gun is and the direction.

I bet we have a member here that could create a better voice file.

Female voice is fine for starters, but the music has got to go. If anyone hears the music though, you should be shot because this would indicate you are not properly JTK'ing.

My thinking as well. The alert should not last that long. I have many voice overs professionals that will do the American voice for us but I am waiting on the script before I can proceed with choosing one.

Do you happen to know the sample rate they are using on the ALP? Hopefully better than LI with 11k

Lol. Is it the voice you don't like or the siren?

All I was trying to show was a shorter version. Using a simple siren. Remember BRD plans to use voice talent so the voice part should be crystal clear.

The AL Priority is a modern day product and we are not trying to imitate any other product. We will not be able to satisfy everyone but we are trying the please the majority of users. Look at the Beltronics voice, I am not a fan of the man's voice but it has not changed in years. It does what its supposed to do and no one complains that there are no different options because their products work and that in the end is all that matters.

I think the siren needs to be higher pitched to stand out from environmental sounds and the stereo.

Smartphone app will let you choose a Male or Female voice. So we have to have both.

Hopefully this will make Yellowcab happy. It's a higher pitched alert. Ignore the voice because this is NOT the one that will be used, but hopefully will give you an idea. Tom is working on the voice talent now so we should have something soon.

Its not just a speaker, Its a different control module which comes with an amplified speaker. It will be an option when purchasing new systems or we can do an upgrade on the control module to the HiFi ones but its a few weeks away from being released.

Diggin' the voice alerts - something I've gotten used to with my LI. Even COOLER is directionality!
