Hi Antoinette,

 

Check out the voices for sale at www.nextup.com.  Only the AT&T and Cepstral voices will work with Etriloquist (Acapela and RealSpeak require that you purchase the NextUp Talker software).  The voices cost $30-35 each.

 

RealSpeak (for NextUp Talker) has a female Brazilian Portuguese voice, but no male voice.

I am working with a Brazilian man who has an ALS.  I am trying to get him set up on etriloquist.  But, the only voice option I have is “Anna.”

 

How do I install a male (English) voice?  Also, is there a portguese voice available that will run on his machine?

 

I did not look to see if he has a 32-bit or 64-bit machine – if that makes a difference, I can find out.

 

Thanks,
