Has anyone used poly voices in p2a? Is it cost prohibitive or worth the money?

Thanks

So citing a response that is 18 months old is not relevant to my question. If it was I wouldn’t have asked again.

thanks for nothing!

To save you some trawling like I did:

• I've been using it for about a month, maybe one flight per day, so far hasn't cost me anything
• I think the voices are really good, they sound very natural
• It takes a bit of effort to set it up
• To put a radio effect on it takes a bit more effort (but worth it in my opinion). To do this, I used VoiceMeeter and added in a "virtual cable", then used Equalizer APO to edit the output on the virtual cable to make it more radio-like (hint: put the first half of the 15 bands at the bottom of the graph, and the 2nd half towards the top)
• The only real downside once you've set up is some annoying bug (apparently with Microsoft, not P2A) where you have to restart P2A a few times to get it working in the app (even if working in windows). Once it is working, it generally stays working. It's not a big deal, usually takes a minute or two to do a restart or three until it works. Then you're golden. You have to start P2A, go to config, test the voice, if you hear nothing then close the app and repeat until you do.

Good luck!

Thank you very much. At this point I think I’m going to pass. It seems like I spend more time messing around with the sim than flying it.
