Joshua Bardwell OpenTX/EdgeTX Voicepack

Fan-made Joshua Bardwell OpenTX/EdgeTX Voicepack Repository [WORK IN PROGRESS]

A big thank you to Joshua for taking the time to make these recordings!

How To Install

1. Backup OpenTX/EdgeTX SD card (mount your transmitter to your PC or use a SD card reader)
2. Download release version of the Joshua Bardwell OpenTX Voicepack here: https://github.com/TheBlueGreen/Joshua-Bardwell-OpenTX-EdgeTX-Voicepack/releases/tag/1.0.0
3. Extract or copy contents of the "drag-and-drop" folder into the X://SOUNDS/en folder on your OpenTX/EdgeTX SD card. (Drive letter X will be different for everyone)
4. Enjoy!

You may also install the drag-and-drop-extended folder which includes extra sounds that are not assigned to any event in the default OpenTX/EdgeTX configuration. To use them you must asign them to a custom event. All files were shortened to 8 characters or less, which is a restriction of OpenTX/EdgeTX. A readme file is included with full sound descriptions.

For model independent sounds you would use GLOBAL FUNCTIONS.

For model dependent sounds you would use SPECIAL FUNCTIONS.

Process

Current edit flow raw->normalized->converted->drag-and-drop

• Raw = Split but not edited.
• Normalized = Volume Normalized (-14LUFs).
• Converted = Converted/processed to match standard OpenTX voicepack(32000/16bit). Also renamed but not changed to match OpenTX naming.
• Drag-and-drop = Matched file names to OpenTX/EdgeTX defaults for drag-and-drop install.

TODO

• Get feedback/improve sound quality as needed.
• Adjust filenames so they can be drag-and-dropped to OpenTX/EdgeTX SD Card. (thanks IDV)
• Improve installation instruction + add images.

Notes and Contact Info

This repo is not directly related to Joshua Bardwell. The original uncut recording was released on the FPV Know-It-All Patreon Discord.

I (Scincidae) decided to attempt to convert Joshua's released recording to a usuable voicepack for anyone to use. There may be other voicepacks created from the same source and they may or may not be more complete or of higher quality. I am not a audio professional, just a fan that wanted to give back to the amazing FPV community. If anyone would like to help, feel free to reach out to me.

Contact Scincidae on the discord with any questions/concerns.

• IDV - organizing and matching file names from the converted files to match OpenTX, shortened extended sounds/wrote their descriptions.

Extended Files

Theses are the extra voice clips that are included but will not be assigned to anything by default. You must set these up with Global/Special Functions within OpenTX/EdgeTX.

Requested/Missing Voice Lines

Theses are extra voice lines that have been requested. No guarentee that these will get added but I will pass requests to Joshua.
