Slight correction, the WE Control Panel is accessed by pressing control
back slash and not control back space as mentioned below.

First, to switch the synthesizer in WE, do the following:
1. Go to the WE controlpanel, by pressing CTRL-Backspace.
2. Press Alt-F, and in the File menu, scroll down to Speech Synthesizer.
4. Choose your preference, and press OK. You will now hear another voice
speaking.
Please beware, that several synthesizers have different voices included.
For instance, Eloquence which is the default voice in WE, will have a
good handful of voices to choose from. In the Synthesizer screen, you
will first choose the synthesizer to be used, and by pressing Tab, you
will get the chance of choosing the particular voice you want.
Also, be cautious! There is a long list of synthesizers, listed in WE.
But - unless you own the necessary hard/software, you will not be able
to use these. If, therefore, you happen to select a synthesizer that is
not pressent on your system, WE will end up with no speech at all. This
is really a drawback of WE, which I think the GW staff could have done
something about. The only two synthesizers that are available by
default, in WE, is the DecTalk, and Eloquence. In addition, you might
likely have at least one SAPI voice installed with your MS Windows. So,
Dectalk, Eloquence, and SAPI, will be the ones you need concentrate on.
To your second question: Yes, you can switch voices more easily. The
easiest way, is to download the Voice Rotor script, from GW's Script
Central homepage. If you need more info, let me know.

using WE.
