"Easter Eggs" for voices

[Old_Marty]

I have the "Sylvia" voice on my TomToms andI discovered that she has an "easter egg" that pops up at random. Specifically, the normal U-turn instruction is: " In XXX yards, make a U turn and take me with you". At random intervals the U-turn instruction comes out as: "Make a U-turn, you can do it baby!" (The first time I heard that I d*mn near ran off the road.) I'd like instructions on how to add easter eggs if I'm recording my own voice for use with the TomTom.

Thanks

I suspect that the recorded voice 'Sylvia' is not from TomTom but, rather, made by another party and the wording you've heard is part of that creation.

See here for making your own custom voice:

No, Sylvia is, or at least was when I downloaded it, one of the voices available directly from TomTom. The create your own content guide doesn't have anything that I could find about creating or adding easter eggs. If I get time I may see if I can "uncompile" a copy to see if I recognize anything that will tell me how to do this. I thought that someone on the forum might already know how to do this.

If it is not a TTS voice, you can use this tool:

What is a "TTS"?

Text to speech. In other words, a computer voice.
