Re: voiceover voices

[Joshua Hendrickson]

I can't stand Daniel enhanced or otherwise, but it is good you can
still get him.  I only download enhanced voices to my iPhone because
the sound is so much better.  I'm currently using Lee enhanced and he
sounds great on my iPhone.  Alex is also quite good.

Re: voiceover voices scratchy

[Feliciano Godoy]

The compact option is no longer available with that term. You must choose the 
regular Samantha voice as that is what used to be the  compact voice. If you 
want to make sure that the Samantha voice is selected and not the enhanced 
Samantha voice you must go to your iPhone settings, general, accessibility, 
voiceover, speech, US English, Samantha and then choose Samantha opposed to 
enhanced Samantha.

Feliciano

If I'm not mistaken, you were probably using the compact voice before.
Then when you did the update you got switched to the enhanced voice.
For whatever reason, it seems like the enhanced voices, especially Samantha, 
sound to me like three pack a day smokers. Go into VO under accessibility and 
switch back to the compact voice and all should be well.

Re: voiceover voices scratchy

[Kimber Gardner]

I remember having to poke around before I found it. Unfortunately, I
can't give you any more specific instructions than to just go into
speech under voiceover and do some exploring. She's definitely in
there, hiding out but definitely there. Hopefully someone else will be
of more help.

RE: voiceover voices scratchy

I think you are right.  But, I cannot find the compact version of Samantha, 
just the enhanced one.

If I'm not mistaken, you were probably using the compact voice before.
Then when you did the update you got switched to the enhanced voice.
For whatever reason, it seems like the enhanced voices, especially Samantha, 
sound to me like three pack a day smokers. Go into VO under accessibility and 
switch back to the compact voice and all should be well.

RE: Voiceover voices

[M. Taylor]

Hello Paul,

I setup a different voice for notifications using the VoiceOver Activities 
feature.  In order to make certain that I would not forget how to setup such a 
service, I wrote a short document, the contents of which, I will paste in, 
below.  

Hopefully, it will provide enough information to get you started.

Okay, here it is:

How To Set A VoiceOver Activity for Notification Center info

NOTE:
This document assumes that you know how to create and configure VoiceOver 
Activities.

Generally speaking, I prefer my default system VO Voice to be Alex.  However, I 
want any and all of my system notifications to use my beloved Samantha voice.  

The short answer:

To set a VoiceOver Activity for the Mac OSX Notification Center, when selecting 
a finder app in the Activity configuration process, simply locate the 
Notification Center app and select it.  The notification app is located in the 
Core Services Folder of the Library folder which is located on the hard drive’s 
system folder.

The long answer is that when you Click on the Find App option during the 
Activity creation process, you will be placed in the Applications folder.  The 
Notification Center app is located in a different place.  You must find the 
correct folder and then simply select the Notifications.app file.

A.
First, open the computer’s hard drive.
Second, open the System folder.
Third, open the Library folder.
Fourth, open the CoreServices folder.
Fifth, select the Notification.app file.

or 

B.
Use the Command + Shift + G key-combo and type in 
/System/Library/CoreServices/ 
to get to the correct folder, super fast.

Good Luck and Enjoy.

Mark

RE: Voiceover voices

[M. Taylor]

Richard, I got your Alfred reference.  

I loved him, also.  

For those not familiar with Alfred, he was the butler on the 1960s, short-lived 
(only 3 seasons I believe), Batman series.  

Richard, thank you for making me smile, today, with that marvelous memory.

Mark

Choice of what voice to use is completely subjective.  I, for example, can't 
stand Eloquence, while Sieghard, and many, many others, would like to have it 
on the iPhone.
I generally stick to Samantha and the male British Siri voice.  (What can I 
say, I wish I could afford a British butler, grin,) so Siri will have to do.  
Though, he wouldn't let me call him Alfred.  (Only those of a certain age and 
TV viewing history will get that one.)

However, in Voice Dream Reader 4, I will sometimes use Alex, though I prefer 
Amy for the bulk of my reading.  I know Amy is not a VoiceOver voice, just 
using that as an example of wide differences in listening choices.

I think some voices appeal to some people just like certain music appeals to 
some and not others.

There is my two cents worth.

Richard

Hi Marissa,

Just as Dave said, the replies here will be all over the place. Alex definitely 
has a following, I personally can't listen to him for an extended period of 
time. Interestingly enough when I listen to Podcasts where the author uses Alex 
he doesn't sound so bad and my 6S Plus probably has the best sound of all the 
iPhones, but I always come back to Samantha Enhanced. Just last night I tried 
the enhanced male and female SIRI voices again and I think if I were to use one 
I prefer the male one, but like I said, when everything is said and done 
Samantha Enhanced still sounds best to me. It's really too ad we can't have 
Eloquence on the iPhone, that would be so awesome!

RE: Voiceover voices

[M. Taylor]

As is usually the case, I agree with Sieghard.  

On my Macs, I use Alex for the primary voice with Samantha enhanced for all 
notifications.  

In iOS, I am definitely a Samantha enhanced, man, with the pitch option 
disabled.  

On Zoomtext, by the way, I prefer ViaVoice which is about as close as one can 
get to Eloquence without having Eloquence, itself.  

Of course, in Jaws, I only use Eloquence.

On my Android devices, although there are some really nice voices, including 
Heather, which I used to prefer back in the old days of Windows Mobile, I now 
prefer and use the Google text-to-speech engine (female).  It is very clean and 
crisp-sounding. I believe Eloquence is available in Android but only in the 
MobileSpeak interface. 

Despite all of the advances in speech synthesis, were I given the choice, I 
would definitely use Eloquence for all my voices, especially in iOS.

Hi Marissa,

Just as Dave said, the replies here will be all over the place. Alex definitely 
has a following, I personally can't listen to him for an extended period of 
time. Interestingly enough when I listen to Podcasts where the author uses Alex 
he doesn't sound so bad and my 6S Plus probably has the best sound of all the 
iPhones, but I always come back to Samantha Enhanced. Just last night I tried 
the enhanced male and female SIRI voices again and I think if I were to use one 
I prefer the male one, but like I said, when everything is said and done 
Samantha Enhanced still sounds best to me. It's really too ad we can't have 
Eloquence on the iPhone, that would be so awesome!

Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Voiceover voices

[Richard Turner]

Choice of what voice to use is completely subjective.  I, for example, can't 
stand Eloquence, while Sieghard, and many, many others, would like to have it 
on the iPhone.
I generally stick to Samantha and the male British Siri voice.  (What can I 
say, I wish I could afford a British butler, grin,) so Siri will have to do.  
Though, he wouldn't let me call him Alfred.  (Only those of a certain age and 
TV viewing history will get that one.)

However, in Voice Dream Reader 4, I will sometimes use Alex, though I prefer 
Amy for the bulk of my reading.  I know Amy is not a VoiceOver voice, just 
using that as an example of wide differences in listening choices.

I think some voices appeal to some people just like certain music appeals to 
some and not others.

There is my two cents worth.

Richard

Re: Voiceover voices

[englishrider91]

Compact Samantha (I can't stand her any other way) Alex sometimes, and the 
higher-quality versions of the British Siri female and American Siri female 
voices. I used to really love compact Karen, but ever since iOS 8, she's 
sounded weird to me, which is why I switched to Samantha.


Thanks,
Ari

Re: Voiceover voices question

[Brett]

 Hi,

Yes, just put Language in your rotor settings, then flick to the 
australian voice. This will give you the low quality voice. If you want 
the high quality voice, you need to go in to ciri settings and change 
the Ciri language to English Australian. this will then give you the HQ 
Australian voice.


Cheers,

Brett

Hi folks:

Is there a way to make the Australian English voice my default voice?  
I like that much more than the American sounding voice that I have 
currently.


Thanks
