David,
I find it hard to believe that you could switch to any SAPI engine on
the fly with no delay. Some engines are huge and require several
seconds to fully load. But within a SAPI engine you can switch fast as
our switch language hotkey demonstrates with Eloquence and ViaVoice. So
it is possible to switch within the same engine quickly but it isn't
quick to switch from one manufacturer to another quickly...at least the
first time until the system caches the large files some TTS engines require.
Regards,
Doug

Why, actually, is WE that slow, to switch voice engines? Another
screen reader I have here - the German Blindows - does it in a swift.
And TextAloud, even can switch SAPI voices seamlessly, throughout a
read text. So, technically, it should be posible to do the job
quickly. Any particular reason, why WE takes that long at doing the task?

Subject: Re: No Voice Differentiation with New Eloquence
This currently isn't possible. You could use different pitches
though. The reason is that with DEC it is all the same engine. With
Eloquence each engine is separate so WE would have to switch engines
with each tone change which isn't fast.

One feature of GW's Dectalk I've liked is the reliable

screen, mouse and keyboard voices. This seems to disappear with the

Eloquence. In my case, it's all Reid all the time.
The tone settings are still in the global menu; so how do we get the
different voices back? Where, in fact, are all voices listed for all
available laqnguages? Thanks in advance.
