to speech before using this feature. Right-click the person's name in the you wish to send
the message to and select the Insta-Voice Message option. The recording window opens.
Click the Record button (the button to the far right) and begin speaking. The
Recorder displays the volume and the amount recorded.

click the Stop (middle) button. To hear if it was a good recording, click the Play (left)
button. To cancel the message, click Cancel. To send the message, click Send.
This is a good way to test your
microphone to make sure it is transmitting clearly.

If you would like to talk to someone with your
Personal Communicator (up to 9 users). You right click the man of the person and choose
Powwow. Only one person can voice chat with you at a time.
Personal Communicator Bar

In personal communicator you
will only hear other people's robot voice not your own and to turn on make sure the H
above the person's name is pressed in.

Voice Chat:
Be sure before you start
voice chat that you do not have a lot of programs running or it may freeze your system. Be
sure and turn off the robot voice. This feature is available through your Personal
Communicator window, lets you talk as though you were using a telephone (full-duplex mode)
or a CB radio (half-duplex mode). You will need a microphone connected to your sound card.
Once in personal communicator with someone you can either choose the microphone or the
little telephone above there name. They will be sent a prompt and can either except
or deny. Once you are connected you will see a voice chat window. At that time you
can adjust your threshold (a little triangle, best if moved more to the left) and
your volume for better reception. If the other person cannot hear you then check your
volume control on your windows taskbar.
