Hail Commander 
Xaphian and I were setting up Voice Attack earlier this afternoon. He mentioned finding recordings of Chewbacca to reply to him after issuing a voice command, as if Chewie were in the copilot chair complying with orders. That got me thinking...
Isn't there a site where you can create custom R2D2 sounds?
Sure enough, it still exists! http://www.r2d2translator.com/
I took the time to put in some custom phrases to be translated into droid beeps and boops. Each of my voice attack replies is unique to the command issued. It's really easy to set up and brings a bit of flavor instead of the boring Speak-And-Spell simulator and doesn't require buying overpriced voice packages.
Here's a small video of me being an idiot with R2 working his magic:

What about you, Commander? What creative or unique voice or sound do you use for your command confirmation in VA?
