In the past I have tried Sox to speed up Alison files and I was not happy with the results even though the pitch stayed the same. Probably not something you would want to listen to all the time. Don't wholesale change anything without making backups so you can go back. If there are just certain nodes you consistently connect to I think you would be better off creating a Google voice custom connect message and put it in the /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt/nodenames directory with its node_number.ulaw It could say anything you want. Connected to Sam, Connected to 'node number', Connected to 'some club name', etc. Google voice is at least 30-50% faster than Alison. You also could just turn off connect messages except for those you make - holdofftelem=1 telemdefault=2 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio

I use audacity to make my own connect messages. How do you use Google voice to make the messages? VA3RQ On 2/18/2015 5:27 PM, Doug Crompton wrote:

Jon, There is a script in the BBB release that automates it. If you don't have access to that I can see about making it available. It should work on any platform. See - http://www.crompton.com/hamradio/BeagleBoneBlackAllstar/bbb_tts.pdf I have not looked into it but I believe other voices and languages are available. Remind me if I don't get to it. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2015 07:57:20 -0500 From: jrorke@cogeco.ca To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Faster telemetry I use audacity to make my own connect messages.

For instance if it is like "Node 12345 connected to node 54321" Do the seperate audio files for each number play right away after each other or is there a delay function in it. For instance is it like PLAY 1.ulaw Wait a fraction of a second PLAY 2.ulaw Or is there just a bit of silence in the audio file that I could chop out?

When you use the custom files for your node and the connected node it play : Node(your node file) connected to (the remote node). I find this to be faster than Allison saying the node numbers. Jon RQ On 2/19/2015 2:50 PM, Skyler F wrote:

OK I guess what I'm getting at is there something extra that needs to be added to an ACID install to use that (Google voice generated files) or can the voice files be made off line and just copy them over to the nodename directory like I do with my custom voice files?

No nothing special is needed. It uses sox and lame so if you don't have those you need to install them. Google voice produces mp3 files. Google also has a text size conversion limit - I believe it is 90 or so characters. The script handles that, allowing unlimited length by patching files together. It also converts mp3 to ulaw and 8K sample rate. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2015 15:16:00 -0500 From: jrorke@cogeco.ca To: doug@crompton.com CC: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Faster telemetry OK I guess what I'm getting at is there something extra that needs to be added to an ACID install to use that (Google voice generated files) or can the voice files be made off line and just copy them over to the nodename directory like I do with my custom voice files?
