As far as the Dectalk Express goes I remember that Jaws for Dos used a pitch skale of 1 to 10. This basically, moved the pitch by 10 everytime you moved up or down. I think this would work great with Speakup, and I can't wait to see the updated version of your program. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Holmes" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Monday, October 08, 2001 11:43 AM Subject: Speakup Configurator > I think what I'm gonna do is try and accomodate Speakout and Doubletalk > first.
