![]() ![]() The other caveats are the need for an internet connection for the app to work (due to its cloud-powered nature), and the fact that it’s a subscription offering with no one-off purchase option, which might not be to everyone’s tastes.Įven bearing in mind these limitations, though, it’s a definite boon to have fully-fledged, powerful voice recognition of the same sterling quality as the desktop software, nestling on your phone or tablet for when you’re away from the office. ![]() ![]() This isn’t as flexible as the desktop application, however, as dictation is limited to within Dragon Anywhere – you can’t dictate directly in another app (although you can copy over text from the Dragon Anywhere dictation pad to a third-party app). ![]() Furthermore, you can share documents across devices via Evernote or cloud services (such as Dropbox). It also boasts support for boilerplate chunks of text which can be set up and inserted into a document with a simple command, and these, along with custom vocabularies, are synced across the mobile app and desktop Dragon software. However, note that the app was still responsive enough overall. So essentially you get the same excellent speech recognition as seen on the desktop software – the only meaningful difference we noticed was a very slight delay in our spoken words appearing on the screen (doubtless due to processing in the cloud). If a preferred celebrity or other talent reflects your brand best and you want to be able to use their voice anytime you need it, ReadSpeaker can create a custom TTS voice powered by our leading-edge speech engine, to give your brand instant recognition in the voice user interface.Dragon Anywhere is the Nuance mobile product for Android and iOS devices, however this is no ‘lite’ app, but rather offers fully-formed dictation capabilities powered via the cloud. A custom voice sets your brand apart and creates a powerful bond with your customers across your various communication touchpoints. If your strategy is to offer an exclusive customer experience and you want to take your brand appeal to a new level, one of the most powerful ways to differentiate yourself is by using a custom voice to represent you. This makes developing new, smart ReadSpeaker TTS voices with even more lifelike, expressive speech and customizable intonation faster than ever. Also, the resulting speech is generally smoother and even more human-like. Only a few hours of recorded speech are needed for a neural voice, compared to at least three times as many for a good quality USS voice. One of the advantages of the new DNN TTS method is that the acoustic database can be much smaller than for a USS voice. An iterative learning process minimises objectively measurable differences between the predicted acoustic features and the observed acoustic features in the training set. This revolutionary method involves mapping linguistic properties to acoustic features using Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). ReadSpeaker creates so-called neural voices, using techniques based on deep learning AI technology. The team closely monitors the recording process to check for consistency in pronunciation, accentuation, and style. A diverse script is used for the recordings, designed to contain all the sound patterns of the language in development. Once a voice talent has been selected, she or he works with our voice development team for several days or weeks, depending on the type of voice, or the voice technology, we want to use. To create our speech personas, we select and record professional voice talents. Our commitment to providing outstanding TTS solutions is made possible by our uncompromising production process, designed to guarantee the quality levels that have earned ReadSpeaker TTS the trust of customers from across countries and markets. The enthusiastic feedback we receive from our customers confirms that we deliver the very best TTS solutions for successful online, offline, embedded, and server-based applications around the world. In fact, expert third party industry observers rate the US English ReadSpeaker TTS voice as being the most accurate on the market. At ReadSpeaker, we have a passion for developing high-quality TTS voices. ![]()
