How do i add voices to PoserSpeak?

PoserSpeak utilizes the Microsoft speech interface (SDK). The SDK is built-in to Windows and is supported with any Win2K or newer Operating System. You can add voices to your computer's speech control panel. Once your voices are installed in Windows, they will show up inside PoserSpeak. Any SAPI5 voice will work in PoserSpeak.

Next Up 3dtrue.com recommends NextUp.com for all your voice needs. Their staff is fast and responsive and they have one of the largest collections of SAPI5 voices available for instant download. When ordering a voice from the links below, you are ordering directly from NextUp.com. They are based out of Raleigh, North Carolina and are authorized brokers for several voice manufacturers. Listen to each voice by selecting it in the pull-down menu underneath each logo below. Some voices are sold in 8bit and 16bit modes. I always recommend the 16bit voice. 8bit voices are special to telephony and you won't like the quality inside Poser. Go 16bit.

AT&T Voices

AT&T has created some fantastic new SAPI5 voices. They will all work with PoserSpeak. AT&T voice users must first own the basic engine before buying additional voices. But the engine comes with two free voices which are both high quality. If you are new to voices, don't let the engine scare you. It actually makes additional voice purchases smaller in size and cheaper for you. Order AT&T Voices

NeoSpeech Voices

If you are looking to buy your first voice and you are still testing the waters, this should be your first buy (plus you get two for one!). NeoSpeech bundles two voices for the price of one and they are very high quality. A fantastic pair of SAPI5 voices with smoother transitions and less of a "can" sound. Both work happily with PoserSpeak. Order NeoSpeech Voices

Cepstral Voices
Cepstral is another company which has some good showings in the voice market. Cepstral voices are also unique and affordable. These are the cheapest since they don't require an initial engine purchase. Plus they take up the least amount of space on your computer. Order Cepstral Voices
