Hello all. I’m quite new to Asterisk and I’ve set up a system for home use, which has been working great so far. However, I’d now like to use German sound files. I’ve found some information indicating that you can download them from asterisksounds.org. But that page doesn’t seem to exist (anymore), or rather, it redirects to completely different content. Is there another way to officially download these files?
From a project perspective we didn’t run asterisksounds.org and the sound files were done by a third party.
Ah, thanks. So … there are officially no German sound files?
The ones we have as a project show up in “make menuselect” under “Core Sound Packages”. If you don’t see a language there, it’s not one we provide.
Ok, so no official DE files.

Nothing official, no, but that doesn’t mean there are none at all.
For example:
Also, if you can find German sound files for FreePBX, they may well include
everything you need for a standard Asterisk system (FreePBX is based on
Asterisk and its sound files are normally a superset of Asterisk’s).
If you don’t mind paying for quality and continued support:
Disclaimer: I have not personally tried any of the above, only found them.
