Just hoping also to help Don with this problem.

Speech synthesis and hearing loss don't go well together, and whilst I hope
that Dec Access may work for Don, it does not work well for me, given the
level and type of hearing loss that I have.
  I keep coming back to Eloquence because I have found it to be the clearest
of the synthesisers that I have tried.

 I have digital hearing aids, and they are controlled by a remote unit which
has an audio jack.  Often, the synthesiser is made easier to understand if I
plug the correct plug into the hearing aid remote control and into the
headphone jack of the pc.

The effect is that much of the background noise level is filtered out.

I also encourage getting good quality speakers, with good tonal control
features.  I should probably ad that hearing aids are not for everyone, due
to the type of hearing loss, so I am mindful that what works well for me
most of the time may not work for others.

Don: Best of luck and I also appreciate the advice of others.

Vaughan.

Hi. how about trying anothersynthesizer, something like Dectalk?   It might
be easier for you to understand.
Dectalk access 32 comes with window-eyes, so it's already on your system.

                Any tips on getting eloquence to pronounce b, d, and t, so I
can understand it.
                Yes, if I use the mouse and do the phonetics, it works,
but,other times perhaps because of my hearing, it is tough to differentiate
                Using both xp pro and windows 7, both with win eyes version
7.5
