STS-121 Radio Sound Pack #2 v1.1 for Orbiter 2006/2005.

Author: Douglas Beachy, 8.13.2006
These files are FREEWARE and may not be sold!

NOTE: Before installing this you will need to have DanSteph's excellent Orbiter Sound 3.0 module installed.  You can get it here: http://orbiter.dansteph.com/index.php?disp=d
---------------------------------------------------------------

This is a collection of 59 sound clips of CAPCOM Canadian Astronaut Julie Payette and the STS-121 crew during their twelve-day mission.  These files were extracted from raw MPEG-2 video files downloaded directly from my TIVO and then downmixed to 48KHz, 16-bit mono.  Clip length varies from two seconds to eighteen seconds, although the majority are <= 10 seconds in length.

I also released a second sound pack (pack #1) for STS-121 that includes 60 additional clips.  Refer to my Orbiter Web page for details.

Note: OrbiterSound has a limit of 60 files per frequency, so that is why my STS-121 sound clips had to be split into two separate sound packs.  If you previously installed version STS-121 Sound Pack 1.0, be sure to delete all the old wav files in "C:\Orbiter\Sound\Radio\217.121 STS-121" before installing the new version 1.1 packs.

To install:

1. Extract STS-121-orbiter-sound-pack-2.zip to your C:\Orbiter directory, making sure that "Use folder names" is checked.  This will extract 59 wav files to C:\Orbiter\Sound\Radio\218.121 STS-121_2.
   
2. Bring up Orbiter and select the "Radio/MP3" MFD.

3. Click the FRQ button to bring up the frequency dialog.  Enter "218-121" (without the quotes).

4. Click the SWP button to swap in the new frequency you just entered.

If you want to change how often you hear ATC messages, run the C:\Orbiter\SoundConfig.exe utility and modify the "ATC Delay..." settings.

That's it.  Happy flying!
