Using Professionally Recorded Phrases

Recording studios such as Worldly Voices provide professionally recorded prompts as
electronic files that can be installed and used on the AltiWare system. (See the AltiGen
web site, at www.altigen.com, for more information. Click Customer at the top of the
page, and then click Resources for Creating Professional Voice Prompts.)
AltiGen provides the Voice File Converter utility to convert these files into the proper
AltiWare format (available from the Windows Start > Programs > AltiWare ACC >
Utilities menu). Some recording studios provide the conversion service for an additional
fee. The converted file can then be used for an AA or for a workgroup or huntgroup group
setup.
To install professionally recorded phrases or prompts:
1. Assign a prompt number to each prompt you would like recorded. Or give the prompt
a unique identifying name. AltiGen-supplied phrases are numbered, but phrases
don't have to be numbered.
2. Submit your prompt script and prompt name to the recording studio.
3. Instruct the recording studio to record prompts in either 8KHz or 11.025KHz mono
in the WAV format.
4. Ask the studio to convert the WAV file(s) into the proper AltiWare format.
If using Worldly Voices, this conversion is done for you.

If you are using a studio other than Worldly Voices, use the Voice File Conversion
•
utility. This utility converts an audio file recorded at either 8KHz or 11.025KHz in
the WAV format to an AltiWare playable audio file.
5. Once you receive the prompts in the AltiWare format, place them in the
C:\PostOffice\phrases\LangCustom directory on the AltiGateway that is
running AltiServ.
Your prompts are now ready to be used.
