I prefer the female Siri and Samantha Enhanced. They work well for me with my hearing aids.

I prefer the female SIRI voice, of course if I could have Eloquence that would be so fantastic, but I am afraid it will never happen. I dislike Alex for the exact reason most who use him as their voice like him, he sounds or tries to sound "too human" and I really couldn't care less if my synthesizer can breath or not. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Anthony Vece Sent: Monday, April 26, 2021 5:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Interesting discovery with Voiceover, and the Alex voice I use the same voice.
