Xbox sound suggestions

So I had a great idea when i was asked to do a quest or whatever on the insider program and i posted it through their but figured that i would start a post maybe to see what others thought of it aswell!

So, the question i was asked had to do with the sounds on the xbox (i.e dashboard scrolling, clicking, etc.) so being someone who loves customization immediately thought, damn! if we could have custom sounds to change what our xbox sounded like while we
do tasks would be amazing!

Now, there are a few ideas i have that this could work, all being completely possible as xbox has made consoles with custom hardware sounds and software is that much easier to change...

The first idea would be that the developers make several different sound "profiles" each with their own specific sound effects having to do with certain styles (i.e Playful, Funky, Original, Retro, etc.) we could pick from to made each of our xbox consoles
our own, something to go along with being able to change our themes and colours.

Now for my second idea is even more exciting, well, as exciting as sounds can get lol, anyways along with being able to choose from several different custom sound profiles, adding Game specific sounds would also be another great idea, who wouldn't wanna
hear sounds from their favourite games as they scroll through the dashboard, or type a message to their friends or even while they're searching the store for new games! having my xbox sound like Borderlands, Bioshock, Halo, Call of Duty, and every other game
to me would just be exciting, adding further personality to MY Xbox!

Now, for my final idea, this would be fantastic to have alongside my first two ideas, and that would be the ability to create your own custom sound profiles, whether it be recording your own voice to make sound effects or importing sounds from the internet!
this idea would obviously get out of hand and is the least likely to be implimented but it would be fun, that's for sure!

To end this off, if anyone has read this, lemme know what you think! or not! whatever! but one thing i want to make very clear is that if this feature is ever added to our Xbox' i never want to see the option to pay for this, i wouldn't even buy Game
specific sound profiles, keep this feature free and just give us the ability to further customize our consoles, we can do it on PC, its time for our consoles to become more like cheap computers, but anyway, i just wanted to throw this out there!

Peace!

Sound Suggestion

Hello,

I have noticed that the notification sound for a friend coming online is the same (or near the same) as the sound that plays when a friend invites you to a game. Golly, it sure would be swell if these two sounds were different so I knew if someone wanted
me to play a game while I am doing less important real life stuff. Dang dishes.

Thanks!

T
