New Announcer Voice downloads?
« on: April 18, 2016, 10:59:19 am »
I've had this app for about 2 weeks, and our freshman HS team has had a lot of fun with already.

My question is this.  When do you think a good, strong, American male voice will be available to announce the names?

Daniel from the UK "voice "is getting by, but it sounds like we are at a cricket or soccer match at times.  Hoping that new voices will be available in an update soon.

Thanks.

Well, unfortunately, those voices are all produced by Apple so I have no ability to add to them.  I agree that the Daniel voice is the best one so far, but it does give a cricket feel.  Generally, voice additions show up with each iOS update so I would suggest just taking a look for new ones whenever your device is updated.

I am planning to allow the announcement sound byte to be recorded or imported and I have been approached by the stadium announcer for the Atlanta Braves, Casey Motter, as a potential source of recording those.   He has done some recording of announcements for travel teams in the Atlanta area and would like to expand.

That would be really cool if that could come together.  Any professional Stadium voice would be supreme, and would put this whole experience that the app offers to a whole new level.  Looking forward to it!
