Code Factory Vocalizer Voices not working - Other Synthesizer Options
|
Haylie Gallacher
With the Code Factory Vocalizer Voices not working in the latest NVDA version, what are people using at this point? If you could provide me with links where I can get new voices, that would be great. Thanks, Haylie

Hello, I believe the latest add-on does work with NVDA 2022.1 and can be downloaded at https://nvda-addons.org/files/get.php?file=codefactory Thanks.

I’m using the code factory voices with the latest nvda version. What seems to be the trouble? They are working fine here, knock on wood.

Hello, If you haven't updated the add-on, you will need to do this with the latest version from the link I provided earlier. Thanks.

Are you using an add-on for the voices? I don't use them and I
don't recall, from the little I played with them if an add-on is
required. If so, the add-on needs updating. I'll let others
discuss how to do that.

Meanwhile, you asked about other voices. From the little playing around with the Vocalizer Voices I did, it appears to me that the Microsoft One Core Voice Cira is roughly equivalent to the Vocalizer lower quality options. I consider the lower quality options to be significantly superior in naturalness to the supposedly higher quality options. They pause more naturally and they may have less problems joining words together. You may want to continue to use Code Factory Voices but meantime, Cira may be a good free option that is already on the machine. You may like David but Cira is a little better at diction.

I should add that I am talking about United States voices. I don't
know what country you are in and what voices you have from
Microsoft.

Hello Halie,
I had the same misunderstanding, I thought I needed to buy a new version of Vocaliser voices, but all you need to do is update the license as described by others, don't forget to unsubscribe your license key before installing the update. You will need to download the voices again when complete.
Best Regards, Jim.

I never actually deactivated my licenses, and it I believe kept my voices. You can deactivate if you want, jus tin case, I didn’t have to re-dl my voices though.

Hi. I'm a relatively new list member, but I'd like to respond. I use primarily the Microsoft Richard Canadian voice, even though I live in the USA. Also, you can get some very high-quality voices at cepstral.com but they're not free.

The wonderful thing about the Windows OneCore voices, in all languages, is that they're all free and able to be downloaded and installed in mere minutes. I don't use anywhere near to all of the voices available for English, but I have US, Canadian, UK, and Australian dialects installed.
