Can you get a cleaner source from a 5.1 mix? Center channel may have more isolated dialogue. I don't own any of the movies but I can play around with my home theater setup to see if this is the case.
Quoted from DugFreez:Yeah...not having any background noise is bound to make those clips cleaner and easier to use. Too bad every game doesn't have a sound test menu where you can listen to all of the sound clips.
Might be able to extract the raw VO from some titles. I'll dig into this over the weekend with some of the x-men/marvel games I own.
So I did some playing around and I was successfully able to extract raw VO from Marvel Heroes. I'll play around with some other titles to see if I have similar luck. Thinking games like Ultimate Alliance may have better sound bites.
Lol...I have way too many audio files to sift through. Looking at 20,000 VO clips from marvel heroes alone. Nothing is labeled and it includes all the translated VO. :/ Some good stuff in here though.
Quoted from gambit3113:I have a feeling that Ultimate Alliance will have good stuff of we can find everything, too. We just need to decide which version and voice we are using for each character, first.
I have some of that as well.
Uploading all the audio I have to a google drop box tonight. If anyone wants to help listen and help evaluate if any of this is usable and worth sifting through PM me your email and I'll share the files with you. I'll keep throwing audio up as I get more.
Bit on the Tron side. Wish it was a bit more gritty and less techno. Wonder if the movie soundtracks have some gems.
Quoted from erak:NIN Both too slow. Does not fit a multiball mode.
the problem with picking song changes is that so many people have different tastes in music.
Voices are one thing that almost everyone can agree on
Beast and Storm need changing.
The goal is to remove the Wolverine panting sounds not to replace all the music in the pin. I think we can find a piece that would stay in tone with the original minus the heavy breathing. If not...easy to swap out.
Good lord. I think my head is about to explode after sifting through 5000+ VO clips. Thank the goddess for Scotch.
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:Does scotch make VO clips sound better like it makes woman prettier?
I hope not. Really don't want to wake up next to ugly selects. =p
That's the plan. Unless we find callouts that are heads and tails above the rest the plan was to leave the other characters alone.
Nolan North's take on Deadpool is tempting.
Guessing the best thing to do is to release a list of all the changes so it's easy for people to swap back original audio if they prefer it.
If anyone wants to help out we really need more Beast audio. I'm going through what sources I have but not having much luck finding quality stuff that works for all the callouts.
Here's a list of some of Beasts voice actors and projects they've been involved with...

I wonder how much it would actually cost to get an hour of studio time with one of these guys.
Also long shot. If anyone has ever extracted and converted a ZSM -> WAV from any of the Ultimate Alliance games hit me up. Have some questions for ya.
