Fair enough. The funny thing is that pronouncing 70,000 the way we'd like must be the default because I don't recall ever playing with that particular setting. The date, dollar, etc., processing, yes, but not this one. I wonder what our friend Kimsan is doing to upset the default.

I sent Kimsan all the settings because he's had this problem in the past, but the setting in particular for this 70,000 instance to adjust is the, Number Processing, option. For 70,000 to be read correctly either the, Controlled by Synthesizer, or Full Number, can be used. Use the spacebar to toggle through the choices. The other choices are, Single Digits, or Pairs. The settings I posted are the settings I've been using for years, & Kimsan liked my settings the last time this issue reared its head. Take care.
