De-icing voices unrealistic
« on: December 18, 2017, 03:55:54 pm »
The voice recordings for de-ice sound mechanical rather than human. I bet no real-world de-icing staff sound so awful!
Could you re-record those voices so that they sound more friendly, please?

Well, of course they don't sound human: they *are* made by speech synthesis, which of course make it easier for us to make them more uniform and consistent, especially when combining sentences.

We might revert to use real speakers in future version of GSX. The issue is, we are working on such important new features, that we never seem to find time fix the minor cosmetic things like these.
