I wouldn't think everyone would know that. don't assume. Yeah, I! like you know that, but some more non-advanced newbies might not. Give those people a break. Smile.

Well, I thought for sure everybody knew the obvious fact that most TTS voices nowadays were concatinated speech samples. I knew that of course. Sent from my mac, the only computer with full accessibility for the blind built-in!

Uh, I knew that. Duh. Not my point anyhow. I think that these are a new set of voices that Apple's coming out with but can't say that for sure.

Ok.
As I said on twitter, these are not actual synthetic. These are recorded by the people who actually made the samanthaand tom voices. So who knows.

I'm not sure. I listen to both of those voices several times (I recorded the entire thing is way file) and to tell the truth, I didn't recognize Tom as the male voice. No. I think this is a completely new set of voices.


I am also very hopeful that these new voices (assuming they are you voices) will also be available on the Mac. Now, if that is the case, these are much better voices than anything we have ever used before.


To me, that is enough of a reason to get excited about the new iOS 7. And then, of course, there is the new control panel. I would guess that one would access it by swiping three fingers upward on the screen. But, that is only a guess.

I thought the male voice sounded like a much nicer version of Tom than I'm use to hearing. They did mention having French and German voices too and demonstrated those briefly. And they said more hq languages were coming.
