I guess when you put it that way, it would behoove me to get used to the dectalk access 32 voice. I wasn't aware it used less resources from my computer than eloquence. I just may give it a try. Where can one purchase this synthesizer?


Thanks and happy holidays!

well the issue is not the quality of the voice. remember the lower quality
olf the voice the less ram and system resources it will take up.  the fact
is the dectalk access 32 has the smallest foot print and is still
understandable.  it also does not have any crashing issues like eloquence
and it uses its own api so it cannot be broken the way other sapi devices
can.  if you are willing to deal with a unstable speech synthesizer then
stay with eloquence if you want a old stable  reliable small synthesizer
then give dectalk a try.  you can also get a hardware model.  despite what
has been said on this list I see nothing wrong with the dectalk USb and wish
I had one.

That voice drives me crazy.  I guess I just never gave it a chance.  Too
used to eloquence I guess.  Smile!

There is a tsb on the FS knowledgebase re vista speech anomalies
involving eloquence.  They recommend, as the only solution, downloading
the eloquence from jfw 8 and installing it, but then the automatic
update feature of jfw 9 will stop working, and the performance of Vista
will be impacted.

When I go into say, task manager, to check my cpu meter,
which I found by
the way, can be aded to gadgits, jaws double speaks, as if there is a
secondary voice that starts when you enter into this area. It
also happened
in one other area which I now had forgotten. Has anyone
experienced jaws
speaking as if two voices are set to talk?

thans,

Julian
