Hi, You cannot buy individual voices. You are stuck with a bundle of languages, and this is because of Acapela's policy. IF you want individual offers, try to convince Acapela to distribute them separately as well as in a bundle. Regards, Nic Mobile Me: nic2...@me.com GoogleTalk: chojiro1...@gm

I think for the bundle its about 80 bucks, not sure if you can buy the voices individually, I will have to check as I am on the 30 day trial too. I wonder if they will object to me placing the voices on my iMac and Macbook Pro, its not as if I would be using them at the same time :) On 27 Jun

Hi, Usually, they cost about $99 for americans, and €99 for other people. If you buy the Scandinavian languages, however, it is $219/€219 for a package. Double check this on the site, but I believe this is what the prices were when I purchased just a couple of weeks ago. Regards, Nic Mobile Me

Hi, This might be off-topic, but the Infovox voices are really cool. After the 30-day trial, how much do they cost? Courtney On Jun 27, 2010, at 1:18 PM, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote: > Hi Ronald. > > It's good to have you on this list. As soon as i saw your name I knew it > was you. > > Glad you a

Hi, They aren't worth using with VoiceOVer, though. At least, not yet. I got a coupon to test them, and I found they always ended up dying on me and were pretty slow in the first place. I didn't see a way to update, either. Hopefully, they have gotten better, and if so, can anyone tell me how t

I've tried those voices. The samples sound great, but they pronounce so many real words wrong it's untrue. I'd be interested to know how responsive the computer is when using them on the Mac side as in Jaws it's a problem. I suppose it's possible also that the Mac version is better than the Windows

Hi, I tried the Cereproc voices, though. I wouldn't recommend them. They're extremely unstable, especially with VoiceOVer. This might have changed, of course, somehow, but I didn't know of a way to update mine. Regards, Nic Mobile Me: nic2...@me.com GoogleTalk: chojiro1...@gmail.com Facebook T
