Dave,
The rate percentage is calculated based on the minimum and maximum
speeds that the active synthesizer supports. Thus, 95% of Eloquence's
maximum will be different than DECTalk's maximum which, in turn, is
different from the Tripple Talk.
HTH,
Steve

Hi list, I can't remember if I asked this before, but I'm curious, what
is the measurement unit for the speech rate slider? I know it's a
percentage from 0 to 100, but is that in some sort of multiple of words
per minute? Also, if one speech synthasizer can talk extremely fast at
100 percent, why does another seem slower? For example, my elequence is
set to 80 percent when I read a document using the read to end command,
but my decktalk voice if I use it is set at 95. They are different
synths, I understand that, but what's the base algurythm for determining
the rate?
does that make sense?
