Special Macros - Text-to-speech

[LA0]

Hi:) What is the difference between the two special Macros "Text - to speech Overrides" and "Text - to speech Options".

Thanks!

Hi Lynn,

The Text-to-Speech Override allows you to enter an alternative (bubble) text for simulation steps. So its used for Text-to-Speech audio instead of the original steps text.

I am not fully sure about "The Text - to speech Options". I think that it should give you the possibility to define per Text To Speech Macro individual defied settings like you have for the rest of the Audio Project.

But for me it is not working, so maybe its worth to ask our support team on this.

Best regards, Michael

The Text-to-Speech Options macro allows you to set the default options for how speech will be generated for the Simulation. You'd only have one per simulation (but it's not required) and it is always added to the Start step. The most significant setting in here is the Use Demo Text setting, which allows you to choose between using Demo text or Practice Text. (You can also set this macro's defaults in Macro Fallback Defaults.)
