Assigning a new voice to a TTS server with a speech engine

Even if a voice is configured as the default voice, it must also be assigned as a voice for the TTS server in order for the voice to be used by applications.

To assign a new voice to a TTS server with a speech engine:

1. From web administration, go to the Speech Proxy Administration screen (Feature Packages > Speech and DPR Administration > Administration).
2. Select Text-to-Speech Configuration.

   The system displays the Text-to-Speech Configuration screen. For information about this screen, see Text-to-Speech Configuration screen.

3. In the Text-to-Speech Type field, select the TTS type from the drop down list.

   The system displays the Text-to-Speech Configuration screen for the specific speech engine.

4. Select the TTS Server for which you want to assign a new voice.
5. Click Assign New Voice under the selected server.
6. In the Voice Name field, type the name of a voice that is available on the TTS engine server.
7. In the Voice Ports field, type the number of ports that are available on the TTS engine server.
8. In the Voice Base Port field, type the port number used for connecting to the voice on the TTS server.
9. Select Submit.

   The system displays information about the success or failure of the administration attempt.

Administration changes do not take effect until you stop and start the voice system.
