download managers out there that can link with safari and stuff. Try crome as
it seems to handle everything quite nicely.

Well as it is no longer being supported they probably are not going to do
anything else with the driver. Shame as the voice was responsive, but crash

Actually the eloquence driver is no longer being supported and the last time
someone suggested it to them the company frankly ignored all emails and phone

Chris,
Although I prefer Eloquence to any other synth, I would not call it the most
natural sounding.
I think it is great because it is intelligible enough to read at a fast
rate, and yet at fast rates, it provides a bit of privacy, because those who

Yeah, but by default, it's set for the compact voices to be off.
Am I missing something here? Yeah, I know you can turn that on, then revert
to the compact version, but looking on my IPhone, compact was turned off on
my end. I don't think I ever! have turned it on.

Ah, yes. Still I'd love Samantha to be replaced by Alex. And honestly microsoft
got one thing right when they made their own voices for the languages. Sure
most of them are in 8k at the moment, but still they made their own voices.
Sure they're unresponsive, unlike Neuances voices, but they work
My guess is they will probably never be enough memory or processor speed to run

and the voices are not all downloaded in ios. I know this as I've experienced
it. You need to have your phone plugged in and connected to wifi in order for
the voice to download. and once you switch the hq voice I'm sure the old one is
deleted to make room for the new one.
On Jun 1, 2013, at 2:
Wait. At first, and if you enable it, the compact voices will be used until the
premium one is downloaded. So yes, they do use the premium voices, for the
default language, which you can change by changing voice control, in settings,
general, international or something.
