My first question would be: Where did you get those files from?

gezz2 · August 21, 2017 at 6:24 PM

Just realised if they are copyright they will have to deleted i'm afraid.

ClarenceOveur · August 21, 2017 at 7:14 PM

I created them using Audacity?

Sources of the sounds vary.

Can you please confirm the sources? To err on the side of caution I may need to delete this thread.

Youtube for the Airbus - I'm still waiting a reply for permission from the owner, its an old video though.

Boeing - mix of Youtube(as above) and my own recordings - I fly 75/76

None are from other FS Products.

I understand if you feel the need to delete this, in terms of copyright what would you need? - maybe I can help with original recordings.

If you recorded the sounds yourself that could be fine if the original Airbus or Boeing sounds aren't copyrighted. If you have infos weather they are copyrighted, let us know

Why not just have somebody with a similar voice record those callouts from scratch?

That would be the way to go. Distort them a little bit and fine tune pitch and frequency ranges... Could work actually. We can't use any computer voice for this or we have to find one that reads it out without any particular pronunciation. "50!" (dark voice) and not fifty (high and low pitch)

They certainly are not hard to find. Youtube is full of callout videos. Is it just me, or do the altitude callouts sound like Hank Hill from the show King of the hill?

I made an Aerofly video of the A320 using these callouts but obviously if it's copyright it won't be posted to youtube

I've removed the link.

I'm sure the original callouts are copyrighted, however this doesn't appear to have restricted use in other simulation products.

I'd be happy to contact the parties involved - Airbus, Boeing and Honeywell, however as I'm not a representative of IPACS, I'm not sure that would be appropriate.

Airbus are wanting to actively engage with the flight sim community, this is an excellent opportunity for the right person from IPACS to get AeroflyFS licensed:

Additionally Boeing have also licensed sim products in the past:

I hope those that have already downloaded the files get enjoyment from them.
