I ask because another member of this list created an audio tutorial in a series of audio lessons. He used to sell it but decided several years ago to make his audio tutorial available free; payment is no longer required. I could send a link to the audio tutorial page if you are interested. If you prefer a text tutorial instead, I think the web page where I first learned about the Dectalk pitches, phonetics etc might still be around...</span><br><span>Blake</span><br><span> </span><br><div class="WordSection1 "><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Hello friend how to wrigh the code in notepad for dectalk singing please send me a tutorial how to play a song as well as eloquence.

The pitch bug you previously identified in Dectalk for NVDA explains why by default Kit does not sound like a kid. While attempting to change the voices to the pitches recommended by Aksel today, I was reminded of what I consider to be another bug. I'm using the Dectalk 4.5 add-on. If I change the pitch for one voice, it changes the pitch for the other 8 voices to match. So if I change Paul's pitch, Harry sounds like Frank. Apparently each voice does not have its own pitch setting in NVDA add-on... I have not tried this lately with other Dectalk for NVDA versions but I recall same experience when I used other Dectalk for NVDA versions in the past.<br>Question: Are all of the various Dectalk for NVDA add-ons compatible with the current version of NVDA? I tried to install Dectalk 4.4 NVDA add-on and received "failed to install" error even though the file downloaded correctly.<br>Blake<br> <br>----- Original Message -----<br>From: Aksel Leo Christoffersen <aksel@blindsigtmail.dk><br>To: 'DECtalk' <dectalk@bluegrasspals.com><br>Sent: Wed, 17 Jul 2019 07:24:07 -0400 (EDT)<br>Subject: [DECtalk] A list of NVDA-pitches for DECtalk</span></p><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:#1F497D">Hi Josh and others interested,</span><span style="color:black"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span><span style="color:black"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:#1F497D">Here’s a list of the pitches, that you’ll need to set the DECtalk in NVDA to, if you want the right sound.
