package with the original Kindle Tom voice plus other voice

@dsmid: Hello David, Do exist a way to create a package with the original Kindle Tom voice plus other voice (Monica Spanish)?
Could I use the voices from K4 SO in K3w?

Can a Windows package be converted to rssolv5 coder 155mrf22?


Finally, after many, many mistakes I could install voices, very often should be because mishandling launchpad… timing, pressing Shift T W nothing happened….. I know launch pad was good because Shift Shift Space prompt success…
As every thing, once you know everything is easy…

I am a Windows TTS user, every time I drive, I pick a book and translate to MP3 to listen on the road. I can do this because “Loquendo Carlos” voice is as good as Kindle Tom.
To me, the voices available from Nuance are poor, close as bad as Microsoft SAM, the best Spanish voice is Monica, however I hear as if the phonemes sometimes were mixed resulting in not clear voice, same filling with British Daniel and Serena; best Serena than Daniel.
Perhaps what I am hearing is the effect of been already acclimated to “Tom”, as happened in spread spectrum technology “speech over the noise”, that is; no mater the noise in a room filled with people speaking alien languages, you hear the people speaking your own languge…
