There is nothing wonderful about those voices.
Zoey sounds as though she's gargling a little and has stilted inflection.
She sounds to me as though she is on downers. The other voice I sampled has
stilted inflection and artifacts as well. They may be better than the
Nuance voices that came before, but until these newer synthesizers sound as
good as the Google Assistant or Alexa, or other such very high quality
speech found in digital assistants, I'll consider them not worth using.

Where do you find them and how much are they? I loved the nuance voices that I heard before. I know you don’t like them, Jean, but I’d like to hear samples. I’m one of those
people who like to change voices every once in a while. I have many voices on my phone. They add variety as I work.Sent: Friday, September 11, 2020 8:39 AM

Hi,
Does anyone know if atguys or some other company will be selling the new
Cerence vocalizer deep AI voices for NVDA? Nextup sells them for their text
aloud product and they sound really good. Voices like conversational Zoey
sound quite good.
