Default Attn Biglock: Custom Sound, Introduction, Crowd, Etc.

Biglock,

A few days ago you mentioned something about wishing you had sound effects and an array of other crowd noises for football games. I did not respond in hopes that someone else who may wanted to lay claim to having this type of information would do so. However, no one has responded so I will let you know that this is one of my specialties, voice recognition, sound effects, etc.

Anything you could have imagined with sound, I can or have produced. I think when I was crafting my skills as an engineer, I somehow took miniature football into account as well. When I use to work in telecommunications, I specialized and studied in this area. So gathering that information was parlayed into miniature football.

I have custom packages that you can tell me what you want. For instance, if you want a certain introduction of your players, the national anthem being played, a particular artist or band singing it, various chants, Pat Summeral/John Madden, etc., this is all possible. I told you that years ago! You may have just overlooked what I was telling you.

Some of my customers in NASCAR order packages like this from me all the time. My library of information is so extensive that anything can practically be ordered. I even told you about the next generation FF.COM athletes who can actually speak. A lot of this comes from that same technology. It's just a matter of do I want to invest my time or money in these types of things.

But yes, I even showed this on my old website and may look at putting this on the new site. There is so much I do that people still have no idea that I do.

Reg,
Your "production staff" is excellent! I'd love to add the audio element to the game. Here's the mechanical format that I'd like to see the sound effects done in: a simple device with ~10-30 audio play back recordings such as...

the roar of the crowd
crowd cheering ...DEFENSE (clap, clap) DEFENSE (clap, clap)
crowd cheering ...GO BLUE
your teams fight song (only click away)
the announcer saying... first down!
the announcer saying... touch down!

It would be even better if the audio device allowed programmable recordings so you could change them with new "fresh" recordings. Heck I got $5-10 kids toys with the programmable audio playback feature. Hmmm...I bet this could be made pretty easily. What do you think?
Joe

Athletes that actually speak?!

I assume these are show pieces and not playable, to be sure their weight will go way beyond 4.0.

I look forward to learning more about this.

Default Shabby J, You Have No...

idea what the capabilities are. I have had these on the table for a few years but have never released them. These are playable figures that I had designed and are now a reality.

I am not sure when I will release this type of figure but the speaking player is alive and well. There are so many other things that I do and are here that I have discussed at one time or another to a deaf audience. So you become reluctant to share that type of information or technology because people may not be interested in hearing about it or they may take your ideas and do with it as they please. I am becoming very guarded in these technological breakthroughs but you can rest assured, many advances are being made in the game not shown on this site.
