Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
Hi Chris, Yes, the Ivona voices are some of the best I've ever had the pleasure of using. As I mentioned to Dark over on the Forum I like using Ivona Joey as my play by play announcer in Jim's Football because it sounds so human and just sounds right as a play by play announcer. Ivona Amy would probably make a good Lara Croft substitute for a Tomb Raider game. :D Cheers! On 5/4/13, Chris H christopher...@gmail.com wrote: Good evening all.

this is useful as I was just about to ask what voices you guys would recommend for a 64 bit system.

Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
Hi Dan, Well, if you are willing to spend the money the Ivona voices work with Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 8 64-bit systems, and are about the closest you can get to human sounding voices. The voices from Cepstral also work with 64-bit Windows as well, but they are rather choppy and I've actually had issues installing them on some computers. So in my opinion the Ivona voices is a better deal.

Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
Hey I wouldn't even use Ivona on Windows 8 as the voices shipped are superior in sound and quality.

Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
I was wondering, if you download the Ivona voices in Klango, are they available to other applications? You can get them for free that way, although every time I ever tried to download them it was painfully slow, so I gave up. If I could use them as Sappi 5 voices, though, I may try again.

Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
Hi Chris, I'll agree the new SAPI voices on Windows 8 are fantastic. I agree I wouldn't recommend a new Windows 8 user purchasing the Ivona voices since the new SAPI voices are good enough. However, many people like myself purchased a Windows 7 64-bit machine a year or so back, and since the only 64-bit voices available on the system at the time were Anna I got some of the Ivona voices to replace Anna. Now, the situation is very different, but I will still use the voices I purchased as well as the new Windows 8 voices. :D Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Games and Ivona
no they are locked. and you can only use 1 voice at one time anyway.
