Hi, I assume you want to modify the Jaws Eloquence. You may want to carry out all the process by using a vocalizer voice instead of Eloquence. First of all, copy and paste the file that contains the values in a safe location, so that you can use it as a backup in any given scenario. Go to the following path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Freedom Scientific\Shared\Eloquence\6.1 Now copy the file “ECI.INI” and put it in a safe location. Notice that in this folder there are two files with the same name, so make sure you’re saving the right file .ini. Now, to modify the values contained in ECI.INI you have to launch notepad as an administrator, press control plus O to open a file in Notepad, and locate ECI.INI in the explorer. After pushing control plus O though, make sure to change to “all files” the type of file extensions that you can open with Notepad, otherwise you won’t be able to locate ECI.INI. Once Notepad opened ECI.INI, push control plus F, and type “enu.syn” without any quotes, and hit enter. Now push escape to close the dialogue. The focus of the cursor should have landed on the language-specific parameters for Eloquence, which in this case is English United States. For English UK, you should locate the following string: “eng.syn” Now hit the home key to get you to the beginning of the line, and start arrowing down until you find a similar line to this one: Voice1=0 50 65 30 0 0 50 92 These are actually the values you should modify to change the voice. Notice that after the = sign there are 8 values separated by a blank space. Those values correspond respectively to: Gender HeadSize PitchBaseLine Pitch Fluctuation Roughness Breathiness Speed Volume All of them scale from 0 to 100 except for gender. In this case you use 0 for male and 1 for female. Now, for some reason changes has never a real effect on speed and volume, so I believe that Jaws is simply overwriting those parameters no matter what you do, but for what it’s worth, modifying the other parameters do have a real effect. After performing any change, don’t forget to save the document. You will also notice that there are 8 voices under each language specific setting, (e.g., voice2, voice3, etc.(. Those alias correspond respectively to Reed, Shelly, Bobby, Rocko, Glen, Sandy, Grandma and Grandpa. So, when you modify voice1, you’re really modifying Reed and so on and so forth. Since I always want to have Reed using the default values, but I also wanted to introduce modifications to use a customized voice to read, I modified Voice4, namely Rocko, an saved the changes. Then, I created a new voice profile based on Eloquence, and chose Rocko to be used in all contexts, PC, Jaws cursor, keyboard, etc. In this way I can have these other profiles and always come back to Eloquence using the Reed voice by default.

It sounded like it was overmodulating, and lowering the volume didn’t fix it. In iOS 17, this seems to be fixed. I’m happy about this, and am using it as my voice of choice.
