I'm late to the party, I know... but I've been told I sound a bit like Garrett so I figured I'd offer my voice and see if anyone thinks it would be useful to them.

 

Attached is a (somewhat rough) take with a couple lines from the series. [1]

 

If you think I could be useful, let me know. If not, feel free to disregard. Thanks for producing such a kick-ass game/mod.

 

Gear:

Shure C03U, pop filter

Sound-dampened recording room

Software: Very poor. Not really my scene.

 

[1] I blew the inflection on the "ly" of "probably". Sorry. Obviously if I were doing this for real I'd do another take. This is just a quick demo...

You chose your friends well for your voice is almost identical.

"I really perceive that vanity about which most men merely prate — the vanity of the human or temporal life. I live continually in a reverie of the future. I have no faith in human perfectibility. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active — not more happy — nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. The result will never vary — and to suppose that it will, is to suppose that the foregone man has lived in vain — that the foregone time is but the rudiment of the future — that the myriads who have perished have not been upon equal footing with ourselves — nor are we with our posterity. I cannot agree to lose sight of man the individual, in man the mass."

- 2 July 1844 letter to James Russell Lowell from Edgar Allan Poe.

For sound software, I use Audition, but I get adobe suite and it plugs to everything I need:

Free software: http://www.audacityteam.org/ <--- is probably the best you will get, imo.

Just remembered, adobe cooledit pro is now called audition - cooledit pro is now free: http://cool-edit-pro.soft32.com/free-download/

Really good quality imho! I hope you get many PMs - if not you can always feel free to give your voice to an open voice concept (which can be found in the Wiki?). Would be nice to hear you ingame! :)

That's the script for one voice. It gives you a sense of what's needed, though it wouldn't be good to use those exact words.

 

Here's a better place to see what's required when contributing a voice set. There are a few hurdles to jump wrt to sound quality and delivery. Each set has over 300 sounds in it, so it's quite a daunting task.

 

If you get requests from authors to provide voices for their missions, then it's between you and them what gets said and what the result sounds like.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
