I'm not currently running any machine with 7 on it, but am sure they work
with 7.  Why not try the 30 day demo?  There's info here:

Richard

 

I have just listened to them. Thanks.

 

Do you run Windows 7 and if so do these voices appear in the Windows text to
speech change settings box?

Peter Have you listened to the Ivona voices, which I think are £25 each?

RNIB sell them and you could google the site no doubt.

Using Windows 7 64 bit

 

Am trying to use the Microsoft Daisy add on. It uses the Windows default
voice for creating audio. I only have Anna listed.

 

Can anybody suggest a free or cheap SAPI5 voice that would BE PICKED UP BY
Windows 7. I tried installing espeak but for whatever reason that did not
work.

 

Thanks for any help.
