Custom Audio Alerts

For those that like to have your trading software make noises at you when an indicator says it's time to enter a trade or time to look for a trade, did you know it's real easy to create custom .wav files? I watch several markets so I have custom wav files say "Soybeans" or "Nasdaq", etc. using Voice Recognition software. And to alert me to which indicator on a chart might be firing I combine wav files to create, for example, one that makes the "boing" noise followed instantly by the robotic voice saying "Soybeans". The sky is the limit. I guess you can record your own voice with your microphone but I don't want to hear myself bark out alerts to myself and the computer generated voices sound much more professional and allow you to select different voices and vary the pitch, etc.

Anyways, if interested, the links to the free software I use are below.
Speakonia - Voice Recognition Software
Audacity - Audio Editor (to combine .wav files)

For Ninja users, if you don't know how to allow the selection of a wav file in the indicator's parameters, here's the basic code you can add to the proper sections.  Be sure you put any custom wav files you create into the C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 7\sounds folder.  Email me if you need any help.
