Do you like to listen to your mp3 player on the way to altitude?
Do you like to listen your mp3 player in freefall?
Would you like your audible to speak to you?

If so, then the N3 Audio by Alti-2 is for you! The N3 Audio is the most unique audible altimeter/logbook available in skydiving today.

At the first alarm altitude you will hear “Breakoff Breakoff” then “Deploy Deploy” at the second alarm – or you can record and download your own .wav files. The third flatline alarm remains the same and is not changeable for safety reasons.

The canopy alarms work the same as the normally do, except instead of hearing the buildup tones and then a single beep for the first alarm, at the end of the buildup tones you will hear “Downwind,” and at the second alarm “Base” and the “Final” or you can record and download your own .wav files.

You can set the N3Audio to announce altitude at every thousand feet (twelve……. eleven………ten……), or you can turn this feature off. Setup is simple, you plug your mp3 player and earphones into the N3A. It will pass the music though until it needs to talk to you, then it will cut the music off while it plays the alarm, or altitude wav file. The N3A does not have its own speaker, so you must use headphones to hear the alarms.

Also, for those who’s hearing isn’t what it used to be, you can use the N3A to play tones or voices at a frequency that you can hear. And you don’t have to plug an mp3 player into the N3A, you can use it with a radio, or, you can just use the headset to play the alarms.

The N3 Audio is in production and ChutingStar has 25 on order. The initial shipment is not expected to leave Alti-2 until just after Christmas. Order submitted now will ship as soon as the first shipment arrives.

The N3 Audio is not a replacement or updated N3 – it is an alternate product with a different set of features.
