To change the voice (for example, to Klaus or Sarah from the Infovox iVox German voices), bring up the VoiceOver utility with VO-F8, press 's' to select "Speech" in the table of utility categories, then tab to the pane for setting voices. You'll hear "Voices, selected tab 1 of 2". You can select and choose settings for the Voice you use for Default Voice, Content, Status, Type, Attributes, and VoiceOver menu announcements. VO-Right arrow to the pop up buttons beside each category and press (VO-Space), then use arrow keys and letters to select your voice from all the available options. VO-Right arrow to set default rate, pitch, and volume for each voice. You can do this either by typing a number between 1 and 100 in the text field or by using your up and down arrow keys on the adjusters when you VO-Right arrow past the text field inputs. You can also edit pronunciation by choosing the Pronunciation tab of the Speech options in VoiceOver Utility. Use either VO-Right Arrow from the Voices tab or item chooser menu (VO-I) and type "t a b" to navigate to the Pronunciation tab, then return. VO-Space on the tab to select it. VO-Right arrow and interact with the table for examples of text words or phrases and the substituted pronunciation. To add a pronunciation fix, stop interacting with the table and VO-Right to the "Add" button and press (VO-Space). A pronunciation dialog window will come up, with prompts for you to enter the text you wish to edit and the new pronunciation, along with the group categories/applications in which you wish this to be used. There are buttons to "play", "cancel" or "save" that will close the dialog window. When you're finished, use Command-W to close the VoiceOver Utility window.
