Hi Alison. Previously I have always avoided text to speech as they can sound very robotic. However the voice of Joanne in your course is very good and a great alternative over a recorded human voice.
The T2S option is really good for one off modules, or where little speech is required. You get the benefit of consistent tone and volume throughout from the start, plus when any changes are made.
Thanks for sharing this, it has really put T2S back on my radar.

- You're welcome! :)
- I have been working on many courses lately with T2S because clients do not want to pay the added cost for professional voice over. It can get expensive in hurry and entails a lot more involvement by the client as they must approve the scripts first The cost of redos adds up quickly. As I reviewed your demo, nicely done by the way, I noticed the T2S speech could use a little polishing. As Paul stated they can sound very robotic. You need to add in the extra commas here and there to make Joanne take a breath. This will make it sound more natural and not a run on sentence. I have also used Joanne. Salli is also a nice alternative.
- Thanks for the tip, Phil!
