The voices are licensed for use by the individual or organisation making the purchase. A broadcast licence for the voice is included and is required for purposes such as the distribution of generated speech in an application, or for including audio in presentations or sales material that third parties will access. For Voice Actors Looking for Voice Over Practice Scripts The first requirement as a voice actor, although it may seem obvious, is that you should be able to read well out loud. Even the most enthusiastic bookworms have trouble articulating a well-phrased passage when asked to do so out loud.

  • Its very good! this has got to be one of the best text-to-speech programs out there today. And thats pretty much all i use it for, to laugh my @$$ off! I made it sing Du Hast Mich with the german voice too! Its also very good for people that have some kind of reading issue.

  • I must say I like your product very much

    I must say I like your product very much, since our business language is in english I use this tool when I have to 'digest' a lot of text. I can then use both eyes and ears to take in the text much faster.

    - Patrik Kallback

  • Thank you for 2nd Speech. I have tried other programs and returned them. 2nd Speech is the best by far. I figured you deserved to hear this. This programs sounds like someone is in my room reading to me. It is better than I expected.
