Hi- 

I wanted to suggest to the group that if they want a copy of the spreadsheet, that they write to 
Amy directly, rather than writing to the whole listserv.

Thanks!

Hi Erin,
I have a spreadsheet that compares about 6 products. I don't think I can attach it on this listserv but I will send it to you. 
 
 
Typically though, I still recommend ModelTalker.  I would love to hear people's thoughts on quality.  I have been happy with many of the ModelTalker voices.  MT now states:  400 sentences is about the minimum one can record and expect to get a usable voice. At about 800 sentences, we find that the improvement in intelligibility begins to plateau. From 800 to 1600 most of the improvement is due to improvement in prosody.
 
 
 
 
Sincerely,

I am looking for any updates on new voice banking software. Is model Talker still the best for voice banking?
