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.
