Hi,<br>
<br>
I don't know of any other voice creation program which can make a
SAPI voice. If you still have the original recordings, and you still
own the copyright in and to them I.E. you didn't sign some sort of
agreement giving all your rights to Innoetics, you should in theory
be able to use such a service if one were to exist at some point in
the future. You might try contacting Lyrebird and explaining your
situation, see what they say.<br>
<br>
Sorry I can't be of more help,<br>
<br>
