Re: [orca-list] Espeak Variants

[Didier Spaier <didier slint fr>]

Hello MaryAnn,

In a recent enough Orca (and speech-dispatcher), the Voices tab has 6
drop-down lists, respectively labeled from top to bottom:
Voice Type
Speech system
Speech synthesizer
Language
Person

If you select espeak-ng as Speech synthesizer and en-US as Language then
scrolling down enough in the Person list you will find:
English (America+Michael)
Here (Slint 64-14.2.1) it's the 17th from the top, as I ship all Klatt
variants (using espeak-ng 1.49.3-dev)

Best regards,

Didier
