Re: Novelty voices

2022-09-13 Thread Joshua Hendrickson
People's ideas of what a clear voice is really depends on each person.
I for example have used Alex in the past and I think he sounds fine.
I think a lot of the voices on IOS 16 sound better then they did
before.  I've played around with some of the novelty voices and I can
understand most of them.  I think eloquence sounds just fine coming
from my phone and that is what I'm using for now.  I for one would
always use a higher quality voice and never those compact junky voices
that are so small in size.  That is one reason why I bought a phone
with one terabyte of space.  I don't have to worry about needing space
for a long time.

Yes, I think many of the voices sound distorted. I like to get the clearest one 
I can find.

Shirley,




First of all, thank you for making me laugh. I really appreciate that. I 
thought your reaction to the novelty voices was funny.




However, I totally agree with you. I mean, I can understand, and can even 
appreciate people loving the novelty voices. If that is what you are used to 
dealing with, then I git it.




But I will admit I don't fully understand why they need to be options on the 
iPhone. I mean, they don't sound all that clear. Some of them seem quite 
difficult to make out. They sound rather odd!

Maybe if you are used to listening to your speech quite slow, then those voices 
sound better? I really don't know. But that is a guess.




Right now, I am using one of the Serie voices as my main voice. It sounds 
pretty clear to me, and understandable. In the past, I have used Alex, and 
Samantha.




I have to be careful with what I use though, because I feel that the voices are 
not clear enough, and can sound distorted. I am not quite sure what causes this 
to happen. But this is partly why I don't use Alex any longer.




Anyway, thank you for sharing your thoughts on the voices. I appreciate hearing 
what you, and others here on the list have to say.




Thank you,




Terri

Apparently, there are weird people out there that like those weird novelties it

try good news and it freaked me out a bit too. But I understood since it was

2022-09-13 Thread Brandon Misch
the novelty voices are basically there due to them being on the Mac at
some point. apple just decided to bring them to iOS since voices like
Fred were already there as well as voices like Ralph or jr. who were
also on the Mac first.

I like her. She’s very clear. I am only using the regular stephanie voice, not 
the enhanced one. I don’t like the enhanced voices.

Apparently, there are weird people out there that like those weird novelties it

try good news and it freaked me out a bit too. But I understood since it was
