My first experience with a screen reader and a synthesizer was with the apple 2 c running dos 3.3 and using textalker screenreader with an echo synthesizer. The echo synth was fast enough at the time. The next computer was a x t clone with 570 k ram and 40 megibite hard drive using an old speech master board with some scripts to read things on the screen. Clunky and slow. It was using dos. Next windows 95 came along and I used webspeak in it for a while along with tinytalk and seekline in dos with nettamer. Things got better with an old accent p c i s a synth I was given and started using provox in dos.

I can maybe understand nvda reading at 85 or 90 don't mean I wish to
read that fast. I normally keep it in the 70 to 75 range. ESpeak
sounds horrible to me.

Hi Sukil

ok, I hear the anoying sound with rate set to 100%. It goes away set
to 99% and below. Again the anoying sound starts with rate boost box
checked at 19% and goes away at 18% and below. The anoying sound is
there all the way up from it's starting point at 19% with rate boost box
checked, well atleast up to 70%. I am not sure abuv 70% with check box
checked, I can't process beyond that point. It sounds like it's still
there. I am stuck using nvda with espeak set to about 40% with rate
boost checked now. I feal like my computer is running on malassis.

The nvda settings are default except for the rate boost and the rate
set high.

That would be greatly appriciated your filing this on github!

Thanks Pete

Hi Pete,

I'd suggest the same thing I suggested before. That is, file an issue
at <http:///github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/issues>. If you don't have
an account on GitHub, I can do it for you.

Please describe the error in detail, as I use the same version of
eSpeak (with occassionally the English voice) with rate set to 30 or
40 with rate boost and I find no problems. Or perhaps I missunderstood
you, and you use different parameteres.

hi

I all ways used the default nvda max english voice, I am
disappointed in the changes made to espeak in nvda I think starting
with nvda 2015 or may be as far back as 2014. Were the changes made
to espeak by nvda devel or the creator of espeak. I would like a
choice in nvda setup to be able to pick witch espeak to install. I
feal the need for speed quite freequently and to have that fluttering
sound in there when the check box for rate boost is checked so I can
get up to a 600 to 800 words per min is disruptive. I am still
trying to get used to it.

Can I replace the espeak n g with the older one by copying the

Thanks for any help!
