Re: New Nuance Conversational Voice
Devin,
Not to go too far off topic with this, but how does it speak only one
sentence at a time.
I have nothing to use it on right now, so I don't know.
Can anyone confirm that this one and only "conversational" voice just
speak one sentence at a time?
Agree, that's not conversational, conversations occur in paragraphs,
even if it's a one word paragraph, like "Good Grief, Charlie Brown."
Thanks,
David

Don’t be surprised if this voice doesn’t sound as great when dealing with long texts like books which we use, and even screen reading, with our jargon like “combo box” or “radio button.”
