Title: TTSMS Speed Question
Post by: Soda97 on January 27, 2015, 06:12:29 PM
Just a quick question, can you change the voice speed of TTSMS like how you can change with TTS?

Good question.  Did you try?

How are you doing it with regular TTS.  Is that not working for TTSMS?

This seems to work for both TTS and TTSMS plugins

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--VoxCommando 2.1.3.6-->
<command id="221" name="spit it out" enabled="true" alwaysOn="False" confirm="False" requiredConfidence="0" loop="False" loopDelay="0" loopMax="0" description="">
  <action>
    <cmdType>TTSMS.Speak</cmdType>
    <params>
      <param>&lt;rate absspeed="8"&gt;I am talking really fast&lt;/rate&gt;</param>
    </params>
    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
  <action>
    <cmdType>TTSMS.Speak</cmdType>
    <params>
      <param>&lt;rate absspeed="-8"&gt;I am talking really slow&lt;/rate&gt;</param>
    </params>
    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
</command>


Personally I find that you can't really mess with the speed too much, or the voices will sound even less real.

For TTS, I went to the windows setting.

My lady speaks a lil too fast in long sentences, I just need to do a -1.  Thank you again.
