multi language synthesizer recommendations
Sally Kiebdaj
Good afternoon list, Would you kindly save me some research time by recommending the best high quality synthesizer license options for English, German, and perhaps Spanish?

Take a look at http://codefactoryglobal.com/app-store/voices-for-nvda/ Both the synthetic Eloquence and the more (though not really) human-sounding Vocaliser Expressive bundled in the add-on come with English, Spanish and German. Cheers, Ed

I'd like to make a single purchase and get all three languages. Which synthesizers have this kind of option? Alternatively, are there viable multi-lingual voices I should check out? Thank you, Sally

Thanks for these two recommendations. The vocalizer only option is significantly more expensive. What is the advantage of buying this instead of the code factory bundle? Also, how do I change synthesizer languages on the fly: without having to go into the voice menu? In window-Eyes there was an add on that allowed you to put voices of any language, synthesizer, or quality on a rotter and then switch within that rotter with a single key stroke. This made reading bilingual textbooks manageable. I'm happy to restrict myself to a single synthesizer as long as I have quick and easy language toggling. Thanks again for insight! Sally

Hi Sally,

as a Window-Eyes user I also missed this app to switch synths in NVDA. The good new is they have a addon for that, called Switch synth and works almost the same as the one in WE, but without a interface. You can download it on the addons page of NVDA, I'm very happy with it. Cheers, Ralf

Does anyone have comments on pros and cons of buying from nuance instead of code factory? I feel like there must be some information I'm missing to justify the price difference. Also, the code factory product has 3 activation and the nuance one doesn't mention anything like this. Thoughts? Sally

1 - The Vocalizer for NVDA found in Vocalizer-nvda.com is not sold by Nuance but by Tiflotecnia, Lda; 2 - As owner of Tiflotecnia, I can tell you that we are better than Code Factory in tech support and in automatic language switching; 3 - If one of the languages you read, uses non latin characters, like hebrew, japaneses and so on, you will be better with our product; 4 - Regarding prices, I don't want to explain... Just say that when Code Factory released their product, our already was in market for several years and their was only released after they were granted with NuanceTTS distribution for screen readers market... Regards, Rui Fontes Tiflotecnia, Lda. -----Mensagem Original----- De: Sally Kiebdaj Data: 6 de julho de 2017 21:56 Para: nvda@nvda.groups.io Assunto: Re: [nvda] multi language synthesizer recommendations That is really good to hear, thank you!
