Fonetiks.org is an "online pronunciation guide to 9 varieties of the English language and 9 other languages" - French, Quebecois, German, Swiss German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Mandarin, Japanese, Indonesian, and Thai. Basically, it has the vowel sounds (including diphthongs/triphthongs), voiced/voiceless distinctions, 'various other sounds', and stress/tone recordings.
I definitely don't know of a better resource for Swiss German phonetic material.
There are some drawbacks (IPA would be nice to have), but nonetheless, it's a lot better than nothing.

Compared to good language-specific courses? Absolutely, it's disappointing. Compared to the resources I can find for some other languages, like Hungarian? It's about on-par.
