I made an EDI sound pack for Windows, thought you guys might enjoy it.

Ever since I heard EDI's "Logging you out, Shepard" I knew I needed to have a sound pack for Windows. And since I couldn't find any, I decided to just make one myself.

http://www.mediafire.com/?ml0o1cdum9c3d1d

The suffixes I've added onto the file names are suggestions for what each sound should be used for but there's nothing concrete and you should be able to set these to whatever floats your boat.

Enjoy!

I installed these, but then my computer locked up and Collectors invaded my apartment. Did you include the IFF with them by accident?

I could've sworn I used EDI's Reaper-centric cyberwarfare suite before uploading. Maybe it's just a bug with Windows?

Everyone knows Windows are a structural weakness...

I'm positive it isn't, I got it from a very trustworthy person. I mean a little weird (he kept talking about being the vanguard of our destruction or something) but he offered a great money back guarantee and everything :D

This seems random, but do you have the sudden urge to impale yourself on a mechanical spike?

And what on earth is that buzzing sound?

trekkie1701c•

Actually I was thinking that wpuld make a great sport, how did you know?

And I think everyone hears buzzing.

Nice try, Harbinger. I can just see it now:

le jacking off, when suddenly... ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL. THIS HURTS YOU.

31
echelon3OP•

That gives me an idea. Now I'm going to have to make a Harbinger sound pack. Hmm....

24
sadistic4•

how, though? double click ASSUMING CONTROL D: exit window THIS HURTS YOU!! D': power off IF I MUST KILL YOU SHEPARD, I WILL

12
echelon3OP•

Log on: ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL
Log off: I KNOW YOU FEEL THIS
Asterisk: Reaper Laser (or just the ding I have in the pack now)
Default Beep: PITIFUL
Device Connected: THEY WILL BE AS WE ARE
Device Disconnected: YOU ARE NO LONGER RELEVANT
Device Failure: Reaper Roar (Side note: That's currently my text notification :D)
Critical Stop: YOUR ATTACK IS AN INSULT
Exclamation: WE WILL END YOU
System Notification: IRRELEVANT
UAC: RELINQUISH YOUR FORM TO US

Hahaha please do this, I know it'll take me a couple of days to get irritated by it but it will be worth it.

Oh god please do that!

I actually had something like that in ME2, with log off sound RELEASING CONTROL.

Funderfullness•

Yes. Do want.

SideArms•

PLEASE message me when you do this!

Ohhh, if you ever make this you have to share. It would be so glorious.

My housemate already has this. Every time he opens his laptop it says 'Assuming direct control' at an inordinately loud volume.

I have a mass effect windows 7 theme in the works. I already have many of the Audio SFX from the in-game GUI. I'll edit the sound set and pack it up sometime soonish :)

And here it is folks http://www.reddit.com/r/masseffect/comments/r3te0/mass_effect_wn7_theme_pack/

echelon3OP•

I would love to add that in. I was trying to get a lot of the UI sound effects, but couldn't find them easily. I ended up cutting one from my ME3 game by taking it out of a video I recorded. If you have a pack of the GUI effects, could you send them my way, or point me in the direction of where they are/what they're named locally? I would love to mess around with them.

When will it be done? :O

You're my salvation! I spent days searching for something like this. You will make a post with link, when it will be ready, right?

Please post it to this r/masseffect when done!

LCne•

Ok I'm stupid...can anyone teach me how to install it?

7
Funderfullness•

Go to Control Panel > Sounds and replace all the default sounds with the EDI sounds, and save the new configuration. The EDI files are named so you know what to replace with what.

8
[deleted]•

Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Change System Sounds (under Sound)

Then you just choose each sound and browse for the sound you want to replace it with.

spookydust•

I was about to ask the same thing. My google-fu isn't what it used to be.

teuchtercove•

I laugh like I'm 9 when the sounds are used... and I don't care!

SuburbanHell•

This is awesome. If you ever make moar, please let us know.

5
echelon3OP•

I'm pretty much set with what I have, but I've got a whole bunch of EDI's files, so if you guys have any requests for certain sound bytes that I missed, just let me know.

4
SuburbanHell•

RAR up everything and let people drop in sounds where they may?

echelon3OP•

I'm uploading my collection of her lines now, I'll edit this post once it gets done uploading. Most of the lines are full on dialog lines that would need to be cut down to be useful, there's only a few one-liners in there.

Edit: Here it is.

Any possibility on doing this for the other characters? I love having these for notifications and message tones. :)

Thanks, this is awesome.

Would install to omni-tool but there is possibility for Joker to take it the wrong way.

3
echelon3OP•

Hey Doc, shouldn't EDI have access to your Omni-Tool anyway, for communication during missions?

2
Pr_M_Solus•

Incorrect. On missions, we use radio. Access to omni-tool irrelevant for verbal communication.

2
echelon3OP•

Hm. Seems I was wrong. For some reason, I thought the Omni-Tool contained that special quantum entanglement radio so that ther ewas no lag between communication. Well, anywhoo, maybe Joker won't take it as bad if you show him how to set up his dashboard with the sound pack. Then again, EDI herself might take offense to that.

This is all Echelon's fault, what a tool he was. I have to spend all day computing pi because he uploaded the overlord.

File Removed for Violation.

NOOOOOO!!!!

Hmm, I had just uploaded those again. I'll reup them right now.

This. Is. Amazing.

GiveMeOneGoodReason•

Awesome! Now EDI works for me!

I wonder if a Legion pack would work... I'm not sure if he has enough lines though... You could do the geth noise for errors, he most likely has something regarding downloading data...

2
echelon3OP•

EDI works well because she had a lot of dialog that was recorded for the tour sections of the Normandy SR2, and was designed to sound like helpful computer. Legion's lines are a lot more mission centric and not as concise as EDI's, but it could still possibly work.

3
PaulGriffin•

Installing now.

I would love some tones or my phone based off this. Like "You have a new message at your Terminal" for emails or something shorter for a text message...I just dont know what would work.

2
echelon3OP•

Personally, I just have the Reaper Roar as my text notification. I know it's not EDI, but it's short enough and usually gets my attention. I think having Kelly Chambers tell me about my unread messages would be just swell though.

2
PaulGriffin•

The last thing I want is horrifying reaper sounds coming from my pocket. I had the Metal Gear caught sound for awhile and that was enough to scare the hell out of me.

1
heveabrasilien•

Can you upload that and help me make a similar one from Samantha?

1
echelon3OP•

i don't know if Traynor would have enough lines to make it feasible, but I can look into it.

2
heveabrasilien•

Many thanks :)

DrunkInPublic69•

Before I say what I am gonna say, I must say that this is FUCKING awesome. Thank you very much for doing this.

Which ones did people put the Notifications in, I am unsure of where to put each one. Windows 7. Thanks!

2
echelon3OP•

If you're talking about the Upgrades line, I plugged that in as my System Notification sound.

1
Ninjanovio117•

Is good!

zegorn•

YOU ARE THE BEST PERSON EVAR. THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE NEEDS. Let it be known that every computer I have and ever will have will have these system sounds from now on. Thank you sooooo much! :D

1
echelon3OP•

You're welcome!

2
devil_92•

how do you install these??

1
echelon3OP•

If you're on Windows 7, just right click the desktop and click on "Personalize". You'll see at the bottom of the window that comes up an icon that says "Sounds". Click on that, and then set all of the sounds from the default to the new EDI ones. I would also recommend storing the audio files in C:\Windows\Media. That's where Windows stores all the other system sounds.
