I know this can get confusing, which is why I added a feature to handle
this behind the scenes for you in the voice rotor script. If you check
the "automatically save voice settings" box, your voice preferences will
be saved the instant you switch to something else. I'm using Window-Eyes
7.11, and this works as advertised.
Best,

> From what I can tell, what you describe is normal. If you check Eloquence to
remember speech parameters and then
you push the button to use current parameters, that will cause the current
parameters to be remembered when you
return to Eloquence. If you now switch to another synthesizer for which speech
parameters have not been
remembered, that synthesizer will start out using the parameters you had in
effect just before you switched to that
synthesizer. It would have no choice because there are none remembered. If
you want Dec-talk to have one set of
settings all the time and Eloquence another, you need to have both remember
their settings. Synthesizers that do not
have settings remembered will always start out with the settings previously in
effect.
This is all obvious once it is understood, but I struggled with it for a bit of
time before it made sense. Hang in there and
try setting and remembering settings for each synthesizer you wish to have its
own settings.

Hey all. i tried the suggestions that rual made and no matter which synth i
chose, the rates were the same. i went to my
first synth wich was eloquence checked the checkbox for use specified speech
parameters thinking that this would
make the current synth honor the settings but when i switched to my other
synth, those settings i made for eloquence
also went with it so my dectalk was also faster when i only wanted eloquence
that way, so i went back and checked
the engine specific parameters checkbox and that made no difference. then, when
i was back using eloquence, i hit the
button that was the set speech parameters to current. and the synth settings
still didn't stick. a friend of mine tested this
by checking the speech parameters checkbox for eloquence but not for dectalk,
and the settings both were the same
for both synths. rate 50 for all voices when i only wanted eloquence that fast.
this friend is using windows xp and i am
using windows 7 and we both have admin wrights. and he told me this used to
wrok wright in 4.5 and higher. even in
the manual it talks about having the speech parameters checkbox checked and
entering on the set speech parameters
to current button would save the settings for that synth and that synth only.
