any voice that supports SAPI should work.  Any of these voices should work with VC

I find Julie sounds quite real, but she is also kind of annoying after a while.  ;D

I guess I did not phrase my question very well.  Do these voices need a software additional "engine" such as neospeak's VoiceText™ TTS Engine in order to work or can a voice be added to the engine that runs Anna in windows?  If the latter, would you mind telling me how you go about doing that?  Julie is not cheap ($60) and I am not anxious to spend additional money for a TTS engine.

Sorry James, but I did not see one of your responses where you say the voice can be accessed from within Vox.  I will give that a try when I get home tonight.  Thanks.

jitterjames

yep.  there are also actions that you can use to switch voices on the fly

Hi mclough6,
take a look here http://www.naturalreaders.com/order_information.htm (scroll a little bit down for only the voices)
There are some voices for less money, also from neospeak  ;)

important, that you use the acapella voice for windows, read the text on the top of the voices
