Assigning a new voice to a TTS server with a Speechify or RealSpeak engine

Notes:
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.

A voice cannot be administered for SAPI or MRCP servers.

To assign a new voice to a TTS server with a Speechify or RealSpeak 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 TTS engine.

4. On the lower part of the screen associated with the server you want to change, select Assign New Voice.
5. In the Voice Name field, type the name of a voice that is available on the TTS server.
6. In the Voice Ports field, type the number of ports that are available on the TTS server.
7. In the Voice Base Port field, type the port number used for connecting to the TTS server.
8. 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 (see Stopping and starting the voice system).
