I'm pleased to release a simple utility app that simplifies batch voice files processing and creates Vasudan speech overlays.

Features:
- GUI or command line mode
- Vasudan speech generation
- Batch processing with message beep prepending/appending and/or mixing with Vasudan speech
- mp3/wav to ogg conversion

Vasudan speech generation mode:

"Formidable."

Very interesting.

The Vasudan speech is created from the generic sample that came with the FREDdocs, I take it? So it will be uniform with no variation if multiple vasudan characters are required?

Speech samples are taken from snippets on the FS Port site extras section. I believe those snippets were extracted from FS1/FS2 campaigns messages and cleaned up.

So it will be uniform with no variation if multiple vasudan characters are required?

Yeah, it will always sound similiar, but each file will be 'unique' because of the randomization. In TSS2 I use different human speech overlays so the final effect is acceptable and you can clearly distinguish which Vasudan speaks at the moment

I'm using it right now while I edit the TSS2 voice acting and this tool is a godsent.

The generated speech is clear and loud (which is a good thing, because it's easier to pitch something down than pitching something too silent up), the timing is good and the generated snippets easily fade into each other without causing any distortions.

If you ask me it's a must have for anyone attempting vasudan voice acting. Its UI is easily understandable and it's easy to adjust for whatever vasudan speech length you require it. No more painfully using and adjusting already existing, low quality vasudan sound samples.

I hope it'll be used widespread, because it reduces adjustment times for voice acting vasudan personas by far!
