Steve, smiles. It wasn't personal to your selling the Vocaliser voices.
It's simply for information. I didn't say voice for voice they were
cheaper. I just said that the English pack from RNIB was considerably
cheaper which sorry mate, it is.
Synths are very subjective and what is good for one person may well not be
for another.

Hi Steve,
I will have to correct you there.
The Ivona voices are about 25 pounds per voice. The NVDA Vocaliser voices
are 65 pounds which gives you access to all the voices, not just one voice.
So which is cheaper?
All the best
Steve

Hi All,
There?s been some discussion on the list about using the Vocalizer voices on
NVDA. Yup, they?re not bad and quite realistic but for information,
Vocalizer is not the only additional synth you can use on NVDA, Ivona have a
range of exceptionally high quality voices including British Amy and Brian
and a wide range of American voices including a very pleasant Sally voice.
They can be bought directly from the ivona website or from RNIB for
considerably less than the vocaliser voices. You can also get a trial
license for them. I think the British pack from RNIB is around £40.
Try www.ivona.com and have a listen to the samples.
Best wishes
Steve
