The pitch changing is a bug (although Nuance calls it a feature). It
will do this if there is no punctuation in the text you are reading. So
if you are reading a list of things and there is no period or comma in
the text Eloquence will just keep going lower and lower. Once it gets
to normal textual punctuation it takes a deep breath and goes back to
normal. I complained about this and Nuance said this was by design... I
could never get them to realize this is not a good thing. But all this
is moot anyway as no development will ever be done on eloquence
anymore...at least as long as Nuance owns it.

I also have a thing that is a bit bothersom.
When doing a read all the same synth will start reading correctly but
after a while it keeps going down in pitch and then resumes the
correct pitch why is this and what can be done to fix it?

*Subject:* An Annoying Voice Problem
I am running Windows XP with SP3, and I have the latest version of
WE using Eloquence. My complaint is that the voice "flips" back
and forth between the main speech voice and the one for the mouse.
This annoying "flipping" happens when reading web pages and often
when reading E-Mail messages. True, the speech is always
understandable; but I wish I could reliably "lock it" on the main
eloquence voice on everything except the speech from the mouse
emulation. I don't need the keyboard voice to be different, since
I know with absolute certainty when I am typing on the keyboard.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
