Re: best speech synthesizer

Re: best speech synthesizer My preferred synthesizer is Eloquence using the US English Reed voice. I use it because it's the default voice JAWS uses and I'm used to it, it also doesn't hurt that in my opinion it's the best sounding voice out there.I also have Eloquence for Windows

Re: best speech synthesizer Eloquence, followed by Espeak, then Dectalk. They may not sound too human, but as others have said they have actual inflection. I can't stand reading a book with the Evona or Vocalizer voices, but if I slow down Eloquence Reid enough it's tolerable. URL: http

Re: best speech synthesizer

Re: best speech synthesizer I tend to switch synthesizers and languages all the time. On the Mac side of things. I'm usually using either Alex or Monica Compact. Monica Compact isn't all that natural, but I like the fact that it can go quite damn fast and still be perfectly understandable

Re: best speech synthesizer

Re: best speech synthesizer Indeed it is fun. I do prefer Dave over the "natural" orpheus voices, but that might just be because I'm more of a formant synthesis person for most things.DECtalk is not what Stephen Hawkin uses. He is actually using the voice that was in the Prose2

Re: best speech synthesizer

Re: best speech synthesizer I must confess, I'm really not! a fan of eloquence, mostly because sinse I write very much the way I speak I like a Uk English Synth, and Eloquence attempt at an English accent is just wrong! I still myself prefer orphius human sounding voice Alan for supernova

Re: best speech synthesizer Like most people, I prefer Eloquence for everyday use. It responds the best when cranked up to a high rate. Well, Espeak does as well, and if you play with variants you can get it to sound a little less grating, but I still don't care for it much.I also really
