Hi John, Oh, I see. Yes, I wondered why that speed throttle wasn't doing anything with FreeTTS. Now, I know. <Smile> As for the different voices it is too bad you can't use MBrola do to licensing and copyright with FreeTTS. That would allow you to have different male and female voices for your mysteries. Anyway, thanks a lot for listening to my requests.
