OK, it all works but the Gender and Age has no effect upon it. What can I do??

Thanks,

Mel

Mel - I think DJ has responded to this before saying that those functions don't really do anything at the moment.

I believe you can purchase a new voice for W7 but there is nothing out there for free.

Others have suggested that you use the soundboard if you want a specific voice, you could even record your own phrases and run them through a filter of some sort to give it a nice robot effect.

The only issue with the above is if you want to use the RSS feed or twitter functions.

Ok, I understand. It is for the future. Thanks for the reply. At least I know that I wasn't causing the problem. Thanks for the Reply.

Well, I have squeezed my lemons and made lemonade. I will still call the robot George which is short for George-ous. She will have blonde hair and a dress to match her voice. And, it will be interesting to say the least. I will put some boobs on her and make her feminine. She should be Entertaining and a lot of fun when I get through with her. She will be the Female of my dreams! Now, let me see. . . . Where do I find a dress? . . . . ..Ok, I will talk later,

Try Cepstral. A few years ago I checked on a voice called David and it was around $40 for a license I think. They have quite a selection and you can download free trials. The voices have adjustments so you can make it sound more robotic. I have a few wav samples but don't know if I can post it here for you to hear. I can email you the sample robot voice examples that I made if you want.

The Demos don't have the robot sound effect but here is a link to try different voices.

Another site that has some pretty cool voices and lots of cool voice and sound effect tools is Screaming Bee.

MEL windows xp pro has many male voices

I have windows7

dont remember if it has male voice it should have it in settings its under speech tools if it has it,havent used windows 7 in long time what i found out about WINDOWS 7 why some like it ,mostly because its the lastest model,like a new trend and has more bells and whistles then WINDOWS XP PRO has but all that is not needed for robots,just like the very big robot engineers say doesnt give more speed unless you add a faster computer ,thats why NO NEW robot designs are using it but soon will change when the new WINDOWS 8 comes out,another upgrade then WINDOWS 9 another upgrade and so on

but i did found out that WINDOWS 7 GREAT FOR home computer,programming,movies and graphic programs and microsoft office
