Re: Tips for speed reading /listening with screen readers

Generally, I find on most synthesizers, running at 100 percent is
difficult, because the speech rate causes it to break up, and that
makes it difficult if not impossible to understand. I have to run
Ivan 3 at 99 percent for windows, on the Iphone, I can only run at
95 percent (some voices only at 90 percent) because putting it at
100 percent makes the voice sound like it has a sore throat, and
doesn't sound good at all. Interestingly enough though, on OSX, I
routinely run voices at 100 percent, and occasionally even faster
than that (when I can get it to work), and they work just fine, or
at least they did last time I used a mac, which has been a couple
months, due to issues with the laptop I have, but regardless, I
find that in general, maxing out speech rate does nasty things to
the voice quality, which makes it difficult to get maximum usage
out of the synthesizers. Besides that, I have no idea how you
would even guess at how many words per minute a particular speech
rate gives you, so I can't verify the speeds folks post, because I
have no way to confirm, those speeds. On 7/14/2018 1:52 PM, The Wolf wrote:
