*NEW* AI Cabin Announcements - The Most Realistic Cabin Add-On | MSFS & X-Plane

[@johnkoral4629]

After 35 years as an airline pilot, now retired, there was one sound for some reason i can't explain, that stands out among all others and that is the sound of the flight attendants in the forward galley, as part of their pre-departure duties, furiously chopping away at big blocks of ice to make smaller chunks for the beverage cart. That would definitely add to the ambiance.

[@Pe11ePD]

I added FA activity sounds in X-Plane 11 via 3jCabin script. It's incredibly immersive.

AI is clearly going to be a game changer in flightsimming, but until AI prices come down AI products won't be for everyone

Ladies and gentlemen. I'm your pilot for this flight. Please refrain from asking any questions to the crew. I have not paid my monthly dues, so they will not respond to you. Thanks for your comprehension.

[@vortexviewer]

Early days, but it's heading in the right direction. The only thing i would like hear more off is onboard sounds. So, the bing/ping followed by the announcement, but not everybody listens, so more passenger background chatter perhaps. Other than that, it's something i'll be considering. Thanks again for another great vid 👍

Looks pretty cool, but far, far, far too pricey for what it is. 35 dollars is a pretty steep initial purchase but then 15 dollars a month ($180 a year) for the good voices is just madness. Good luck to the guy

[@denziiey]

this is similar to beyondATC. it seems these AI software need some maintenance which makes sense. It ain't that serious for me. I don't need those features to fly

@@denziiey I have BeyondATC and its actually cheaper than this and that's going to be a fully fleshed out ATC system. Also its not subscription based, i can buy premium voice packs as and when i feel like it and I've got those for as long as they last, so if I don't fly for a few weeks I haven't wasted my money.

Sounds great, but the pricing structure doesn't work for me. The need for a subscription to record myself is disappointing and having to subscribe for access to the marketplace even more so. The base price is good, but I don't think it is worth having without those features

[@ChrisJohnson-vs6nj]

Had this for last seven days and enjoy using it.I must praise the developer as he has had feedback from day one and listened to everything and adjusted the model accordingly, most importantly on pricing!!! I think there a good potential for this product if it is developed to meet customer needs.

Exactly what needs because I'm still not seeing it. Expensive tape recorder sim? I guess I want it to actually DO something.

Oh my, if he has adjusted it to its current rate, i dread to think what it was before, its already too expensive!

I just purchased this one, but I feel the sound is too muffled, I can hardly hear anything clearly... can't we adjust it? if I can't hear anything clearly, it loses its purpose....

Looks good, but for $35 I'd expect to be able to record at least my voice, its already doing the AI stuff so they could at least have allowed that, then if you wanted premium or to record additional voices, that could be in the subscription.

[@simonforrister3820]

Really nice UI. Looks very professional and intuitive. Maybe - like SayIntentions will very shortly - the monthly cost will reduce in the not too distant future.

[@CTTechGaming]

A good as this is, I think to many are subscription based or ones that you need to keep topping up. Soon be cheaper to be an airline pilot. The program sounds great and it's very clever but I wonder if it's something required, I use PAX and that gives me some randomness in announcements and even mentions where I am going and weather, now it's not as advanced as this obviously but it doesn't cost me past the first purchase for the top level. And that even gives you cabin sounds and the passengers comment on your flying etc. so although this adds an extra level not sure if the costing is worth it for the cabin.

[@cruzelife6510]

here’s my thing. I think we need a more seamless addon- like PACX but an easier UI. AI voices are nice and it will help.

[@Drmerlin604]

Following your video I bought the base package. The first thing I noticed is that there are only 4 default voices. Only one of them is male. I installed the software without an issue and generated my first flight (using the Fenix A320 V2). I turned off the default Fenix announcements. And then…. Nothing! I get no cabin announcements at all! I see that others have experienced the same. Given the price of the software, I am less than impressed so far.

[@mikebakkeyt]

Not happy about subscriptions in general but I also understand that current AI costs money to use so honestly it's a catch-22. More of a concern to me tbh is the dependence on cloud. If the dev goes away then so does the program. I'm painfully aware (before being shouted at) that that applies to MSFS too but the risk there is realistically not MS going away but them shutting the devs down (again). I have honestly been toying with the idea of revisiting X-plane for exactly this reason. I've sunk a lot of money already into MSFS and it's a concern. For me, I think the decision point will be when FS24 releases. I'm concerned it's just a career mode without addressing the multitude of irritants which haven't been addressed in 3+ years now. I bought 2020 day 1 - 24 will be much slower to understand what exactly it is.

How well does this sync up with the Fenix? Because atm the default Fenix announcements or customized ones you may use work really well for instance when you close the cockpit door you stop hearing the PA announcements and of you change views to sitting in the cabin you hear them clearly is it the same thing with this?

[@JanLindenMusic]

The "three custom voice edits" in the Pro subscription version description is not clear enough. Be warned. You get three chances to edit you voice recording, and you cannot add any more voices either. This software has potential, but the current existing voice models are rather amateurish. For the High price, I expected a lot more.

(As I have not used it fully yet,) have only four or so voices and you can not record your own voice / or others in the community ? Its a monthly subscription for the AI voices and your own pilot recording.. Bit of a shame as its not that inexpensive monthly...I would have paid a lump sum for the facility to record your own voice, provided it was reasonably priced and a one off payment but thats just me. The designer of the prog is very impressive as he has just now altered bits of the basic model due to feedback...

[@martinnnmusic]

A nice program all and all, but 35 USD is a bit of a steep instep market. It would be worth it if you get all the features with a one time purchase. However, it has another subscription of 15 USD a month, which gives you the premium features. That just makes it too expensive to justify the purchase, and not worth it to buy the base package (for now) imo. People don't want more subscriptions, we want to own the piece of software. And if you're going to use subscriptions make it a 2 to 3 dollar one for programs like these. I don't see anyone wanting to pay more for a program like this, than for their monthly Netflix subscription. Or, in a flightsim case, a Navigraph subscription.

[@Drmerlin604]

I have just watched the video again and it is totally misleading! You need to know that you CANNOT record your own or any other voice unless you subscribe! Similarly, you DO NOT HAVE ACCESS to the community voices unless you subscribe. You will be limited to 5 American voices (2 male and 3 female). The second languages are limited to 5 European languages. So if you are flying in the Far East or India, tough luck! The actual announcements are not even close to being as clear as Gavin’s video suggests. Right now, I could not recommend this software. Gavin’s video (which uses subscription voices only) makes it out to be way better than it actually is.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Please watch the entire video again. All the differences between the platform options are explained and even shown with a graphic to compare the 2 options. The clarity of the voices and filters being used are also explained.

[@Drmerlin604]

@@EasyjetsimpilotHi Gavin. I have watched the video again and I stand by my comments. Sorry. The graphic does, indeed, show the difference between the base product and the monthly subscription add on. However, what I found to be misleading is that you do not explain that recording your voice or using the community voices is only available if you subscribe. You do not make it clear that your demonstration is of the subscription version and NOT the base product. I contrast this with your demonstration of both base product and enhanced voices for Beyond ATC. Generally I really enjoy and value your videos and expertise but on this occasion we will have to agree to disagree (although I hope that this product will improve in time).

Announcements trigger at odd times or sometimes do not trigger at all. Whilst I am sure that this software will improve, the IMHO it is NOT even close to being worth the price of the base package.
