Yes, that was also why I made it, but I agree with Blake, that 4.3 is the best version in general.

Version 4.6.2 is not the same as 5.0, but they sounds similar.

Here's a demo file I made of each version.

Hello,

I'm listening to the 4.6.2 version and it sounds like the DecTalk 5.0
that's available for NVDA. Are they the same?

Is there somewhere where I can hear the 4.6.2 in more detail?

I have to say that the song sounds much better in the 4.6.2 version
because its pitches are matching with the music.

Thanks,

Brandon
