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

 



Hi.

I'm using DECtalk e.  It was a free upgrade from version 4.  You might
want to try it and see if it fixes your problem.

I did impro8e the speech by adding additional palameters to my say
commands.
I added

[:dv ri 90 sm 0][:pe -380][:ra 350][:dv ap 130]

Hope this helps.
