    Is there much of a delay between the moment you initiate the TTS and the Russound turns on the appropriate room(s) to deliver the message to?

    Thanks!
    It's basically instantaneous. In fact for many situations I delay it. Like when someone enters a PIN in the door lock I delay the greeting by a second or else you miss the first bit as you're not fully inside yet.

      Is the Russound on all the time? Are you using the paging trigger,or just letting BL control it through its serial port?

      I have a HS Zee-2 and a Trendnet USB to Serial adapter. Blake said the Russound plugin should work but I haven't tried it yet.

      BTW - I have a CAV 6.6
      Thanks!

        My CAA doesn't have the paging function I believe but I wouldn't use it even if it did. It's all controlled through the plugins. My amp is on all the time but when a zone isn't turned on it hardly uses any power at all. It's been a while since I checked but less than my Linksys router. When a message is called up the zone turns on, switches to the HS source and when it's done I have selected in BLSpeech to return the zone to the state it was in before the TTS, which is usually off, but if I had been listening to music it would go back to whatever source.

        Give it a shot! If you already have a Russound system and HS there's absolutely no reason to not get them talking!

                Well, now that Halloween has come and gone, what sounds, phrases and/or music are folks using for Thanksgiving?

                I figured that as the holidays progress to try and solicit folks inputs and recommendations. Mike

                  HS isn't overly thematic here on Thanksgiving. Like I said it plays Alice's Restaraunt and the usual chime that's played before announcements is replaced by a turkey gobble and only on Thanksgiving day itself. On Christmas the chime is replaced with jingle bells.

                    Colin, as you did a great job starting this thread by sharing your HS particulars, I was hoping to solicited to our HS brothern in sharing their particulars as I'm sure that you and I can not be the only person(s) to employee creative sounds, speech and or solutions.

                      Particulars

                      I've collected sounds pretty much since there were wav files. Attached are some of the Alert sounds I use or have used. Thank you guys for sharing the ones above. There were some that I did not have (or the ones I had were not as good!) Much appreciated.
