You will need to record 59 voice commands. You have to do it in separate files. The files should be in one of the common formats: wav, wma or mp3 (56 kbps bitrate). Please keep in mind that although the recordings are separate, TomTom will stitch the together, for instance if you have "After" "One hundred" and "Yards", they will be put together to form the phrase "After one hundred yards" by TomTom. That means that when you are recording "After" it should be recorded as if it was a part of a complete sentence.

Please try to keep the essential navigation information, such as "Turn right" and add whatever you want to it. For instance in the Voice of God it sounds something like "Turn right here, my child".

The filenames on the right are what the individual phrases need to be saved as. Please note that some filenames have capital letters in strange places. Each individual word or phrase needs to be edited as tightly as possible with no silence either side and needs to be as loud as possible obviously without distortion.

After you've done the recording, send it to us via e-mail, including a picture you want to represent the voice. It will take us a couple of days to process the voice. The processing fee is £12.99 (approximately $25)
