sound is pretty clear but not so tender as HUI in pleco. however, when i set speed to slow, output sound become unnatural, so i have to set at normal speed
I purchased but unable to download data package after installation. This was the second time. Even the trial version has the same problem. Don't have a chance to try at all. Please fix. Thanks.
For some reason it works fine on Android Honeycomb 3.2, but not on Android Gingerbread 2.3.7 CyanogenMod7. It won't make any sound and the test mode in the voice app doesn't make any sound either. The English voice have been tested and works.
The female voice comes in lower pitch than normal females. When I drive, it easily got drowned out by noise. In contrast, the google maps navigation female voice is at the right pitch and never gets drowned out. I did try to turn up the pitch, but it sounded so weird I couldn't stand it. Another issue is that, if I speed up the reading, the voice reads Chinese at the faster speed most of the time, but once it comes across some English letters, the rest of the paragraph it reads the Chinese much slower.
