LSR-and-Speech?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All: I am thinking of nuking windows off my laptop--and considering what screen-readers-and-speech will be most enjoyable?
First of all, with the small size of lsr, is it a live CD similar to Oralux?
Next, if I ran LSR would I also want a separate console screen-reader such as speakup or YASR? In reading the lsr homepage-and-FAQ, I didn't think it was clear which speech engines already come out-of-the-box? It mentions support for several, which I will paste, however, I will put a number sign in front of ones I have already heard: Supported speech engines include #Festival, #Eloquence, Loquendo, Cepstral Swift, #Cepstral Theta, #Espeak, and FreeTTS. Now, they talk about testing both IBM TTSynth and Eliquence, I thought they are basicly the same voices? Now, in the 13-and-a-half-years I've had a PC, so far my favorite speech has been Dec-Talk 4.2C and Eliquence. Would I like any of these other speech engines? There was a US/Russian speech which came with Oralux which I didn't mind.
And lastly, would TT Synth work with YASR?
Thanks so much in advance for answering these questions-and-sharing your individual viewpoints
Hart
