    "Impressive, Very Useful..."

    August 20, 2008  |  

    Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2008.601

    Pros

    > Wow, just what I need - a simple, not over-complicated TTS app.
    > Doesn't try to be something it isn't
    > Very reasonable price
    > Simplicity, it will never get old.

    Cons

    To be honest, I cannot think of any.

    Summary

    I strongly recommend this application to anybody in need of basic TTS.

    "Official SAPI5 compatible"

    December 2, 2007  |   By Lee 85

    Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2007.208

    Pros

    Finally a straight forward product which declares that it supports SAPI4 and 5. Other products such as Advanced text to speech and Coolspeech only supports SAPI4. I was absolutely and utterly disgusted with other products for they can't even support Microsoft Sam voice, a SAPI5 voice.

    Stop and start where you want from cursor. Some other nonsensical products dosen't let you start from any part of a text.

    Cons

    No pronunciation tuning

    The stop and play function can be improved, if you un-pause the player and it dosen't re-read the previous word

    The converted MP3 file is abit rustled in quality, not as clear as you directly have it read out.

    "error/(s?) in application"

    September 17, 2005  |   By asyouwish

    Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2005.608

    Pros

    Looks ok.

    Cons

    Creates some sort of OLE-error, when uses AT&T-Chrystal-voice.

    Thus it is of no benefit to me, as long as this application has program-errors.
