Hi Valiant,
Here is the problem I was having. If you have a 64-bit program, and
try to use a 32-bit voice the program will crash. For example, try to
use 64-bit Jaws with an older 32-bit voice and it will blow up in your
face big time. However, if you have a 32-bit game and use a 32-bit
voice it s
Hi all,
I just wanted to let everyone know I was slightly wrong aboutsome
things I said earlier on list. I said that the only 64-bit voices I
knew of were Microsoft Anna, ESpeak, and a couple Loquendo voices. As
it turns out I managed to get the Ivona voices working on 64-bit
Windows 7, and I also

I'm confused. I'm not having any problems. I had no idea they weren't
working properly. Like I said I have two different win7 64 bit machines
and I can use SAPI with games, with NVDA, JAWS and with Monkey Term
client. I did have to update my MonkeyTerm scripts to support the
changing of SAPI5 v
This is weird. Neospeech works great, as does AT&T natural voices. I had
a tough time getting them installed, but once I figured out how they
work without a hitch on 64bit.

Yeah, I know. That's why I raised the issue. I know eventually there
will be 64-bit compatible voices for Mac, Linux, and Windows
eventually but right now we are in a transformation faze were the
majority of software is geared for a 32-bit environment yet most of
the systems you are lik

weeks, but it would really be a blast to get rid of the tts.

Hi Shaun,
Sure, but at what cost to the end user? Wil I, for example, have to
pay $30 per voice to update all of my Cepstral Swift voices to get the
new 64-bit Swift voices or will they include it as a free upgrade? I
doubt it. I'm sure they'll be some charge involved inupgrading from

Hi Philip,
You are right, but I was just concerned about the fact that a lot of
developers such as Jim Kitchen do use Sapi in their games and it would
appear our choices for Sapi output on Windows 64-bit platforms are
pretty much limited to Anna, ESpeak, or some of the high priced
Lequendo voices
rted Text-to-Speech before.
