hi
If you're running the latest speech-dispatcher, which is version
0.8.3, you can actually use varients with orca now, finally. It's
disabled by default though because when you enable it it actually just
adds a lot mroe voices to the voice list in orca. So many that orca
has a serious lag issue when trying to navigate the list. If you want
to turn them on, edit /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/espeak.conf. It's
in there, under espeak varients. This is supposed to only be
temporarily until speech-dispatcher gets a varients api which all
speech modules are supposed to take advantage of, which will enable
for example the different ibmtts voices. Who knows when that will
happen though
Thanks
