Voices with JAWS 13


Onwardbob
 

My JAWS 13 came with the real speak solo direct voices, and the training
recommends using them. Well they aren't as good as what came with my old
JAWS 8 version. OK fine, but I can't find a way to change the pitch on
uppercase letters. Am I missing something? Thanks...Bob

you can always go back to Eloquence.

I have a RealSpeak profile for occasional use, but Karen works mostly as
an alternate Say All. As I've said on here before, I just make better
time with Eloquence, and almost never need a repeat. Good thing too.
This
Dell at the office won't even do Alternate Say All; the keyboard just
isn't compatible, I don't know why.

Robert,

I don't think you can alter the pitch in Real Speak voices, like you can
with Eloquence.

I also don't think so. On the subject of voices, does anyone know if
the Ivona voices are also slowish and unresponsive? I'd like a high
quality voice that's fast like eloquence.
Thanks

Quality comes at the price of more bits to process, and therefore slower
processing, and therefore less responsive speech. As processors become
faster, things will improve, but haven't heard it yet.

Maybe Soronel's 32G 8-core unit can do it?

A lot of this depends on your computer speed. Things are very responsive on my AMD quad-core with a solidstate drive.

My system isn't really able to speak any faster with the natural
sounding voices. What it can do is sustain far higher loads of actual
work and still be able to speak without becoming choppy. That was a
real problem for me with my previous system (a dual AMD something or
other with 4gb ram running WinXP Pro) on that system, pretty much as
soon as I put load on it I had to quit have it trying to speak until
the work was done.

Hi,
The Ivona voices are great. I would definetly recomend them, not only do they read well, but they sound great sped up and aren't too badly priced. :)
