Hate to state the obvious, but why don't you just record them yourselves. Options: 1) Beg, borrow or steal a microphone 2) Download the list of filenames, prompts contained 3) Record all prompts in one go, 1 after another with a 1-2 second gap between 4) Use some free audio editing software to snip the big file into little files, and save each one as the correct filename (albeit with .wav as the extension). 5) If you feel up to it, run a batch process over them to bring them all close to 0db 6) Use sox to convert to gsm files 7) Provide the resulting sound files as a free download from your website so that others don't have to do the same thing. I can help you with any step from 2 on (unless you want to come to one of my 2 studios here in New Zealand and borrow a microphone). Really the hardest part is splitting the files, but it only takes around a hour for the full set (I'm lucky, my wife who I recorded for the French prompts had also done School of Audio Engineering and so was able to use Wavelab to do the snipping etc. The other option is to just use the telephone and the asterisk dialplan to record the prompts, but I would say this would take rather a bit longer (unless you made a script that would record the first file, press # to confirm, record next file etc). Drop me a line if you need a hand with any of the above, should you devide to record them yourself.
