Users of the free NVDA screen reader now have another option for obtaining enhanced voices. Acapela Group is now offering two voice packages, which both include a variety of voice styles and languages and work on up to three computers. The basic package, which costs 59 Euros or about $67 in U.S. Dollars as of this post, includes what Acapela calls the Colibri voices, which are slightly more robotic but better at higher speech rates.

The voices are available for a 15-day free trial and delivered as an NVDA ad-on. Source: Acapela TTS Voices for NVDA No one has commented on this post. You must be logged in to post comments. |
