My voice vs a Computer voice for my audiobook
Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:24 am
I am somewhat a little slow recording an audiobook version of my ebook. I have as a placeholder (Yet it will always have it available to download) added a computer voice which is automatically generated by highlighting the text I wish for it to read. It can read 1 hours worth in 1 minute so its pretty easy to make. I somewhat feel however that some people may actually prefer this American adult voice (chosen by BK) rather than my Australian 17 year old voice.
None of us are perfect and we both have our own errors (I can't say "TH" [as in thought] and "S"). But I want to see what you guys prefer... Below I have included a 1 minute sample of the same section in both my voice and the computer voice. listen to each one and honestly tell me which you prefer: (click the small triangular play button after clicking the link)

I will make record my own voice regardless since by reading the book I can correct its errors... Just interested to see if people would actually prefer the computers voice rather than my own. Comment below on your favorite.
