I really haven't gotten into different voices, figuring that I can
adjust to most anything, and that different voices are very subjective
to each person listening and what they like or don't like. However,
with this discussion, I went back and browsed through all the
available voices; wow! I ended up getting James, and after my wife
heard him, she was very surprised that it was a TTS voice and not
someone speaking. She liked Sally the best. So now I've got some
choice when I want to read files or BookShare books. BTW, thanks to
the people that have pointed out that BookShare is very easy to browse
and download from, I never realized. I just might extend my BookShare
membership on that fact alone, grin.

That $50 a year is the best investment for me! And being able to take all those 
books with me on the device I use the most, and be able to read them using my 
favorite, voices is even better!


Thanks,

wayne,
Bookshare now has over four hundred and fifty thousand titles of fully 
accessible books. It is the best investment, in my opinion, for anyone who 
enjoys reading a wide variety of material. Especially since so many of their 
books are coming straight from the publishers.

Re: Another good Voice Dream Reader voice.

2016-07-08 Thread englishrider91
VDR and Bookshare is a great combination! I have Sally, and while she sounds 
quite smoothe and pleasant (which totally surprised me, considering my earlier 
complaints about most Ivona and Acapella voices) I absolutely hate how flat 
sounding she is. She always seems to use the same speaking method for every 
sentence, and it's this sort of up-and-down, up-and-down rhythm, beginning a 
sentence with the up, then going lower towards the end, and it's very 
repetitive and irritating to me. Maybe it wouldn't be such a big problem if she 
wasn't so flat sounding, which might be exacerbating the issue for me.

I initially really like James while listening to the sample text, and bought 
him pretty much on the spot, afterwards I found myself not liking him as much, 
so I stopped using him; then I came back to him one day, and really liked him. 
One problem I have with James, Ashley, and Bridget is that they all sort of 
sound a bit muffled when compared to Kate and Julie, which both sounds much 
clearer. It's like someone put a cloth or something lightly over the speakers 
mouth, and I don't hear that effect with Kate or Julie. I'm not a huge fan of 
Julie, but that's more because she tends to have some odd intonation as well, 
and tends to be a bit too expressive for my taste. While I like Emma and Rona, 
they both have that weird up-and-down within words and auto tune thing going 
on, which I find very distracting.


Thanks,
Ari

My biggest problem with most Acapela and Ivona voices is that they kind of have 
this weird up-and-down internation in the middle of words. It's very sudden and 
jerky-sounding to me, and sort of sounds like the voice was put through auto

Another good Voice Dream Reader voice.

2016-07-07 Thread englishrider91
Besides Kate and James, I'm really starting to like Ashley from NeoSpeech. I 
have her set to read at 255 words per minute, just like Kate and James, both 
also from NeoSpeech, but I have her pitch set at 120. I also sometimes use 
Bridget from NeoSpeech on occasion, but I have her left at defaults, other than 
altering her words per minute, also set at 255.
