Recording your own voice set
Each of the 15 available voice sets in FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 contain
more than 1000 different recordings. It’s a formidable amount of
work our voice authors have invested in recording all of these.
However, FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 is designed to handle 16 different
voice sets, the last slot being left open for your own recorded voice
sets. If you have the patience to record all the various calls, replies,
and messages, you have the opportunity to actually take the
captain’s (or first officer’s) seat yourself! As you might have noticed,
there are fewer messages read by the captain than by the first officer.
Thus, if you plan to use your voice set only as the captain’s voice, you
can record a smaller voice set comprising a little more than 600
messages. By recording the remaining 400+ messages, you will have
a fully compatible voice set that can be used for any crew member in
FDC Live Cockpit! 2011.
All the voice recordings available in FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 currently
were recorded using the excellent tool SimVoice, by Kirby Angell. You
