Not a bad effort, you've managed to retain the annoying factor while boosting the quality. smile.gif

LOL funny since I'm just making a loop mp3 that I'll play, and it will say that every now and then. em320.gif I'll post it once Im done, just some music from UO with some voice produced with a TTS system.

You should try reminding them every 15 seconds or so how 'important their call is to you', not sure it would improve the record much but it's worth a try.

I don't actually bother answering the landline at all at present, if it's someone I actually wish to speak to they'll have my mobile number. Only received one or two unwanted calls in the past year or so on my mobile.

That's my new thing now, when I get a telemarketter, instead of no answering, I'll put them on hold, and put the phone near the speakers and play some midi music. laugh.gif Record is only like a 30 second wait though, so I'll keep trying. em320.gif
