I have 304 voice prompts recorded as 22Khz wav format files that sound like crumpling paper whenever I convert them to the 8Khz wav/gsm format required by Asterisk. I was considering trying the G.729 codec, but reading through the specs, I see that the 8Khz conversion is going to dump me into the same pile of dung. Any body have any suggestions? Thanks Danny Nicholas hiring someone to re-record 304 prompts is not simpler and far faster than redeploying an entire system ? sounds like about a 4hr job. or find a better converter. Option 2 is what I have in mind (BTW, with the "talent" I have, your 4 hrs is closer to 80, after normalizing, trimming and "prodding"). What I do now is record the file using soundrec, normalize it with Audiograbber, then trim it with Audacity before converting it with Sox. Which of these is letting me down, (or it is "the loose nut on the keyboard")?
