G4 Custom Tones

[TFrank615]

The Chief isnt extremely happy with the tone set thats already on the pager. He said it sounds like a dinner bell and the other Chief says it sounds like his driveway alarm lmao. My question is im having a hard time using the custom tone setting. The file i have is for the Minitor Alert Tone, it works however doesnt sound the greatest. Any tips or tricks? Before someone says it ive already tried dumbing it down to 8000Hz and still sounds bad lol.

Thanks for the help!

To make the file I have work better sounding than a dying duck or lead me to other tones than whats already on it.

Load the file into Audacity, and clean it up. Always keep your original file as is, make any changes to a copy of it. Save subsequent changes as different file names, so you can come back to the previous, if it does not work as hoped.

What alert(s) are you using now? What other alerts would you like? (I have our primary alert sound like a Minitor beep, and countywide alerts sound like a submarine dive klaxon.)

Do you use it still? Sounds a little garbled on my G4.

It's part of my standard G1 programming for members that have those devices. I don't personally use it on my G5, but there is no reason it wouldn't work.
