You can buy fine USB audio cards for $10 and under off of Amazon. their quality is good, there's no driver to install, I just did this for the same reason as you're looking at. I don't think I consider going to something like a double-talk.

It's got my brain working on what is my best bet. Can you smell the smoke? Seems like a hardware synthesizer might be the easiest way to separate the music from the screen reader voice and let me adjust WE with the hardware synth, and the sound card output with the stereo. Well, I have an old DoubleTalk synth that I think I've used since the DOS days, but maybe not back quite that far. Would old hardware like this work with XP and the latest WE? If so, how do I go about setting up WE to use that while the rest of the computer sounds would use the internal sound card? If not, then I could swipe a sound card out of another old computer; but I would have to get someone else to install it. Still, that's not a complicated task. Then how do I set up the two cards, and hopefully volumes for each, to do what I need? If my V R Stream would have just handled a 1 terabyte external USB hard drive, I wouldn't need to do all this. So, the old desktop and good old reliable WindowEyes to the rescue. Thanks again! Marilyn If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
