If you go the "say" route you can embed commands in the text to change
the speech. For example
say "Hello [[pbas 60]]World" -o test.aac
adjusts the base pitch up for World and writes it all out to a file
called test.aac. Say doesn't appear to support directly writing mp3 but
you can convert your files later. You can find an explanation of the
commands on Apple's page under Embedded Speech Commands:

Well, for what i want to do i need it a bit more felxable, Meaning to
do multi voices, so that parts can be merged into the same file that
each particular part can interact with the other.
e.g so if i am writing something that has a father talking to their
child that the father comes first, then the child and back and forth.
I do a lot of writing and creating for different stories, and the like
and I find the multi voice idea a perfect way of learning and making
great things for kids and others a like. that is why i was asking.
I don't think you could do what i am wanting with the method of adding
to itunes as a spoken track?

No, and I already told you before about 10 times how to do that, and
even made you an audio demo on how to do it.

Hi!
Cocktail is a general-purpose utility that assists with cleaning,
repairing and optimizing your Mac. It has a bunch of tweaks, and
can also be scheduled to perform various tasks like cleaning up
caches.
Audiobook Builder is exactly what it sounds. It lets you take files
and make them into audiobooks. It has a lot of features, too,
although I don't use it myself.
Jeff, you may want to grab the new Cocktail build specifically for
El Capitan here:

Hi, Well, last night I upgraded to 10.11. Everything seemed to go
smoothly, but half of my apps won't open, or they open saying they
have no windows. I tried to copy the contents of my downloads
folder
onto a thumb drive and once I opened my thumb drive paste wouldn't
work. I then tried to reboot into windows using bootchamp but
it won't
work. So, I guess I'll be going back to yosemite, but my
question is:
can I go to the app store, click on purchased, and download
yosemite
and install it? Or, do I have to wipe my system and start from
scratch?
Thanks, Jeff
