Hi Peter and all,
The edit in said file totally works, so now i'm running Espeak at 600 words per minute without a single problem for now.
Thanks for the tip.
Best regards.
Francisco.
Hello,
In that file
/etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/espeak-ng.conf
there are options like this...
EspeakMinRate 80
EspeakNormalRate 170
EspeakMaxRate 390
That means the slowest rate speech dispatcher will allow will be 80 wpm, the default will be 170 wpm and maximum would be 390 wpm.
I have modified EspeakMaxRate to 550 and that gives me much faster speech rates.
I don't know about the inflection but I think it might be possible to craft a voice file for espeak with given properties including variant and inflection.
Greetings
Peter

Hello,
How do I change the speed of the espeak-ng? When I set the speech rate to 100 in speech dispacher it speaks a little bit slow.
I tried modifiing /etc/speechdispacher/modules/espeak-ng.conf but it didn't help. I changed the maxrate parametr to 400.
Also is it possible to change the inflection of this synthesizer like you can do in nvda for windows?
Thank you.
