Working With Digital Audio Files
One of the most tedious jobs in most talking remote controls is setting up the voice responses. The Sicontroller
software makes this task easy.
All you have to do is get your words into individual WAV files. The preferred format is 8-bit mono, 44.1kHz
sample rate. Some formats may not upload correctly, so test a word first, if you are not sure. There is limited
support also for mp3 files, but we do not guarantee that files in mp3 format will upload. Once you have proper
WAV files, you can then drag and drop them from whatever directory they are in to the programming grid.
Compound words and phrases can be created by dropping consecutive files onto the grid, in order. You can
preview the words or phrases, as you go, using your PC's speakers. You can also cause the Sicon-8 to
playback whatever audio is currently stored in each memory location. If you are online with the Sicon-8 via
telephone, or if you have a phone plugged into the front panel port, you will hear the words played on command.
For uploading or playback, you can highlight multiple files and press the appropriate button to execute a batch
function.
