Speech Technology / HAL Text to Wave using Neo Speech

« on: December 14, 2006, 06:30:04 am »

Semi-frustrated so far; does the text-to-wave conversion not work with Neospeech voices?

This was one of my key reasons for purchasing the program, but wasn't told that this functionality didn't exist, as it seems to only work with the lower grade voices. Is an update of the program coming to allow this?  Or is this why people are switching to Text Aloud?

Thanks,
Keith

Speech Technology / HAL Text to Speech Reader won't start at all.

« on: December 14, 2006, 03:58:55 am »

I purchased the NeoSpeech module version of the HAL TTS on CD, and installed it without incident, but it won't run, period.  Windows XP declares "there was a problem" and it's goodbye.  Lots of disk space, memory, and a fast processor, recent full virus and spyware scans, etc., so it's not the basic platform.

Are there some programs though that might fatally block or conflict with HAL? Any key factors to check?

Thanks.
