Tis very true! DoubleTalk has always ranked near the bottom of my list of favorite synths, and I always wndered if the people who liked DoubleTalk speech had a hearing problem. But, truth is, whether you like a particular synthesizer or not is very subjective, and just because I may not like it doesn't mean that I should criticize someone else who does like it. Lois is right though; by playing with the pitch, and the verious voices in DoubleTalk on the Book Port you can make it sound bearably good. But, I would still vote for Dectalk myself. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lois Goodine" <al419@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 3:55 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: Book port Speech : Don't be afraid to experiment with pitch and speed settings of the bookport : speech.
