Found out the problem with Eloquence, for my way of using speech. First it
was Spanish or Italiano. Second, Eloquence is 10 times faster than Ivona and
Scansoft wich was set to rate 16. I was thinking it was something wrong with
the speech synthesizer. I had the Eloquence script fix. 

I was thinking about Martins fix regarding 96/192 kHz. Since i have a usb
soundcard. I think it is best to use usb. Then the voice synthesizer
automatically is sendt through usb. It seems impossible to send WE through
the native soundcard of the laptop and at the same time using usb. What do
you think? Some good accessible software that can route WE through native
and the music through usb? Not saying i will try this at once, but maybe
later some time.

Take care

Stephen, Martin, Steve and others.

Interesting. I was only paying around with a usb sound card. Only for audio
and speech. Maybe i will play with a mic later, but don`t have time for a
while. I was surprised about loosing speech. Looks like the pass through
have to be done natively in the sound card. Like you`re suggested. Don`t
know if this is possible on this card. 

Should the Eloquence voices be so fast? Don`t understand a thing.


Take care

Steve and Terje,

I am not sure what Terje was trying to do, but I can tell you what my 
problem was:

I was recording some audio tracks with 192/24 and wanted to switch the voice

synthisizer (eloquence) to the recording interface so I would hear the 
speech in the same phones as the sound I was recording.
otherwise I would have to have two phones on my head, One for WE and one for

the sound - and I have no idea how to handle this *smile*

Since this did not work - The only solution I found was to plug the output 
of the internal soundcard (where WE works) into an source input of the audio

interface and there did monitor the source.

The only problem with this solution is (beside the additional cable) is an 
anoiing sound because of the bad quality of the internal card or problems 
with the power adapter - could not solve this. Only running the notebook on 
battery instead of the power adapter does help to remove this.

cheers
Martin

Terje,

I don't believe so. Windows doesn't natively support upsampling beyond
48kHZ. The sound card will have to take care of this when it's opened at
such a high rate. I'm guessing that for the sake of performance, most
high-end card manufacturers don't bother. Truthfully, you oly need the
device open so high if you intend to record or play back audio at
24/192. Otherwise, Windows has to up and downsample your audio. If you
aren't recording or playing back native high fidelity sound, then keep
the card open at 48K. Anything beyond that will just waste system resources.

Regards,
Steve
