I have hearing issues as well, and even with hearing aids Ava does sound
muffled to me. Allison sounds better, though I always use the
so-called angry Samantha LOL.

I'm using Ava right now. She'f quite expressive "no pun entended" but not as
much as I expected. I'm no longer using Elequence. I'm just using Ava. It's
so disappointing they got rid of Jenn though. I loved Jenn. She was a very
good reading voice. But then again, I may have just gotten too use to her
from listening to the PTR1 and PTR2 manuals over, over, over, over, over,
over, over, over and over and over again. Front to back too. Jill was okay
too. Sam sounds annoyed kind of, and she's also too cliché for my taste. The
Apple stuff has her, The first Victor Streem had her, and on it goes. Enough
already with Sam! I really wish they'd bring Jenn back I wouldn't mind her
all over the place. Smile. Also, why don't they ever use hot chicks for
these voices? It's always women in there 40s or something. Let's hear some
hot chick for once. Even some girlly 36 year old or something.

Hi Guys,
I have installed the U.S. Vocalizer Expressive voices on my machine. I have
used Ava a little and I don't think that I have ever heard a happier
sounding synthetic voice, unlike Samantha, who always sounds a little mad.
I wish that Ava was available for my iPhone. Overall though, for JAWS, I
still prefer plain old Eloquence. I have used it for 15 years or so, ever
sense they started packaging it with JAWS, and I have just gotten so use to
it that it seems a little strange using anything else. The Eloquence voice
itself sounds very robotic but I think that it does a better job at very
high speeds and the pronunciation is a little better than many of these more
natural sounding voices.
Thanks,
Scott Duck

Allison, Ava, Smantha, and Tom are the U.S. voices. However, they are very
expressive as was discussed in the latest FS cast as compared to previous
versions. The direct version does not indicate caps by raising pitch like
the expressive version. I am using Ava myself and am very happy with the
response on my Windows 7 64 bit running both jaws and magic with 6 gigs of
ram.
I am not up on all the additional voices for other countries but I am
impressed with all the vocalizer expressive voices out there for everyone
already.
I am also very happy with the first public beta so far.
It's playing very well with Magic 12 and comes in handy on all these
overcrowded web sites today.
