Hi Rick and David,

Thanks for your replies.  My PC is fast so the voices generally work pretty 
well.

 Voices like that are never going to be as responsive as Eloquence no 
 matter
 what you do.  They are just too much to process as the sample is much 
 larger
 than with something like Eloquence.  Eloquence has a sample size of
 something like 2k per second as ATT and similar voices have a 16 or 22K 
 per
 second sample rate.  If you have a really fast pc then they work pretty 
 good
 but not as good as eloquence.

 Hi,

 I was looking through the JAWS-Users archives and saw the recent thread on
 ATT Natural Voices with JAWS; I was wondering if anyone ever figured out
 best optomize the voices for JAWS?

 I'm running Vista and have Mike and Crystal installed; both work but the
 response time is slower then if I use Eloquense.  I know that with using a
 different synth things will be different; but is there anything I can do 
 to
 speed things up?  I really like having the Crystal voice on my computer, 
 and
 I think it is worth it sometimes to have that good voice even though 
 things
 will be slower.

 Thanks,
