As part of this, I am using the SpeechSynthesizer.PhonemeReached event to determine the start and end times of each phoneme (as a step in figuring out the start and end times of each syllable). The weird thing is that the ...
I'm working on two websites. One is an existing classic asp site which posts xml to a new asp.net (.net 3.5) website. The classic asp site is using msxml's serverxmlhttp object in vbscript to send this xml over. The whole thing works until I make a seemingly unrelated change to the asp.net site. When I add a few lines of code that us...

Back in the old days, text-to-speech, as cutting edge as it was, was very imperfect. When you typed in a word, it would pretty much read it how you spelled it... in monotone. Oftentimes, the result would be very funny. Nowadays, Text-to-Speech is too intelligent to goof in ways that can bring a laugh. As a personal project, I'd like ...
