How does one update to the so called, new ML voices?
I know how to download and install them in Lion, but is it different in
10.8?

I use Fred, although you said you don't care for the voices included with
VO. I find it is more responsive than Alex. Also, I am updating my
computer right now, and there are several voice updates -- Paulina is one,
but I don't know about Alex, since I don't use him. For Paulina, it
mentioned improved clarity and pronunciation; I'm not sure about
responsiveness. i will let you know once it all finishes downloading.
HTH,

Hi all,
I don't know if this has changed in Mountain Lion, but in Lion vo is
usually a bit sluggish. It's useable, but it isn't as responsive as a
Windows screen reader, and I can't help wondering if part of the
problem is Alex. He sounds great, but are there other voices, whether
the ones you cna download under speech preferences or third-party
ones, that make vo respond better? Ideally, a lightweight synth like
ESpeak would be wonderful (I know, most people hate ESpeak). I'm not a
fan of any other mac voices, though I haven't yet tried the Nuance
ones you can download. Any thoughts? Did 10.8 improve things at all in
this regard? I'm using a mini with 2gb ram, but I have seen the same
thing on an Air with 4gb ram and even a 2011 Pro.
