UsesLeading Uses of Speech-Over Professional

Fast Production of E-Learning Courses and Training Videos


  • Create narrated PowerPoint-based e-learning courses and training videos fast and put them on-line and update them easily. TTS voices have proven to be excellent for this type of application because of their clarity and consistency - qualities that are most important for learning.
  • Listen to the Usain Bolt video above to hear how well the voice explains complex technical subjects in an interesting way. After the first slide, you are not aware that it is a text to speech voice.
  • Students quickly accept the fact that the voices are not real. Best results are achieved when students are informed of this in advance.
Develop With TTS Voices; Produce With Real Voices
  • In this type of application a real voice is desired. To maximize efficiency and minimize costs, developers use Speech-Over during course development to hear how the voice is integrated and verify the script. Then, when the presentation is finalized they replace the TTS voice with a human voice talent before publishing. This approach achieves the benefits of both types of voices: the speed and efficiency of TTS and the superior quality of a real voice, where the costs and scheduling of real voice are at a minimum since only one, final, recording is needed.
