In Part 2, when the little cartoony character says he is going to sell out and go to SSB, it kind of sounds like he is saying ah-SESS-Pee. All in good fun Mr. DU. Hey, that rhymes with Mr. VU! :O) Mr. AEX To watch the epic adventure so far, click the links below in sequence: Part 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqn9b3bZSuY Part 2 - http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6423059/ Part 3 - http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6424061 Part 4 - http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6428623/ Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 19, 2010, 02:18:39 AM I am large and I have a moving company. 8)

Walt, I think it's related to the computerized voice and some codec problem that the computer can't say SSB. Phred DERB I hope our New Castle man has good news fer you Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: K1JJ on April 19, 2010, 04:12:31 PM What ya gotta do is type "S-S-B" not ssb.
Same for call letters. Pronouncing "W1UEI" and "W-1-U-E-I" sounds much different when using the text to voice software. T Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: WA3VJB on April 19, 2010, 04:14:26 PM and it will take a pretty good stab if YOU do the phonetics up front

I ended up with werl wide, but he still mutates it. Interesting speech engine. I wonder why his voice sounds different in your segment Paul? Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: WA3VJB on April 19, 2010, 04:34:42 PM I wonder why his voice sounds different in your segment Paul? Well, because of his B-As. When I picked among voices, and the high, thin option matched the latest unfortunate development for our carrot-topped hero.

5/5 OMFG I shouldn't have watched this one with people around. I'm laughing too hard. Luckily I did think in advance to put on a headset .... You guys are finding lots of tricks and angles that I haven't seen in there yet. Regular James "J-N" Camerons, you are. ; ) Glo decided this was too much fun not to get in on...... http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6437029/ Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: flintstone mop on April 20, 2010, 01:04:15 PM The animation and the mechanical sounding voices are too much and it can even make Tron sound effects.
I'm still replaying this So, Tim are you gonna throw your big munky on Glo when you get Ray home?? Phred Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 20, 2010, 03:01:08 PM that was all Glo. she just jumped right in and did it. 8)
Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: K1JJ on April 20, 2010, 03:49:47 PM Good job, Glo! One of the best ones so far.
I haven't looked closely yet, but where did the sound effects come from? Are they there to choose or do you need to import them from elsewhere? I especially like Tina's Krell generator sound... ;) T Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 20, 2010, 05:02:03 PM oops. with that diamond Glo pawned for me I got greedy and bought up every Raytheon broadcast transmitter left. Gotta figure out a way to power them.
http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6438935/ Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 20, 2010, 05:15:28 PM Quote but where did the sound effects come from? Go to the site and click the tab that says make movies; then scroll down to the bottom and select a scene, and as soon as you do that, a bunch of icons will appear down the left hand side of the page, and the last one down is sounds. Double click it, and it brings up a menu of sounds to add to your script. When you`ve chosen one you want to use, make sure to have your cursor in the right place in your dialog box, and click "apply" in the sounds menu. Title: Re: The AM Geek Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 20, 2010, 05:55:33 PM Actually I gave you a little too much info, although it will work that way. Just go to "make movies" click on that, and when the page changes, the row of icons will appear at the side, you don`t have to choose a scene first. I was going backwards at the time I did that and that`s how it came up for me. (This is Glo, BTW.) :D

Glo saw the first few and just went nuts. :D She's been around me long enough to have absorbed much of the "AM Aura". yesterday she was rapping about wanting to descrotanize someone she works with at the kennel.

Nice one Fred, and excellent on your caution about playing music. (But if he does ...) But Derb's methanizer, when used in conjunction with his a'wipe uniform, shown, strap even your offering. Me, I'm selling out. I cannot compete in AM Geek, and Ray will totally dominate. I must find an assess-pee rig pronto.
