What is the difference between TTS, v6, v6.5 and v7

Thu Dec 13, 2012 4:20 pm

I am running NC 9.485X10 with Western and Central Europe 2GB 900.4602 maps....Can someone tell me what the difference is between VOICES VocalizerTTS, VOICES LoquendoTTS v6 , VOICES LoquendoTTS v6.5 (X20) and VOICES LoquendoTTS v7 (X30). I assume I would use either of the first two but I don't know what the difference is. Thanks.

To go a bit more into the details:
There are minor quality differences from old to new, but the major difference apart from the size is:
V6 voices can be used on slow 32mb devices running a V8 Nvacore with correct settings in the switchfiles.
The V7 voices are compressed to save space but need more CPU and Ram to work often resulting in a lack of response on these old devices.
With the V9 Navcores offering MemoryBoost any TTS version will work fine.

Thanks for that...I can get v6.5 to work fine but v7 stays silent...it shows up under voices but no sounds..any suggestions??

For V7 you need a patched library, but if the 6.5 works good, stay with it and save the trouble.
