Hello!

Use SSML tags in your text to control speech rate and other speech attributes.

Please refer to this convenient demo for experimenting with SSML tags - 

https://sitepal.com/documentation/fine_tuning

And try the following text sample - 

This is normal speech <prosody rate="slow"> this is speaking slowly </prosody> <prosody rate="fast"> this is speaking fast </prosody> back to normal.
Let's try more precise control. First, let's use relative values:
This is normal speech <prosody rate="-30%"> this is speaking slowly </prosody> <prosody rate="+40%"> this is speaking fast </prosody> back to normal.
Now absolute values:
This is normal speech <prosody rate="60%"> this is speaking slowly </prosody> <prosody rate="140%"> this is speaking fast </prosody> back to normal.


Notes: 

* different voices may interpret tags differently - so best to experiment and identify what works best with the voice of your choice. Specifically - some voices may work well with relative values, others with absolute values.

* certain voices do not support SSML tags at all - and are thus not included in this "fine tuning" demo. If a voice is not available in the demo, that would be the reason. Specifically - all engine 2 and engine 4 voices do not support SSML tags.

Hope this helps, best,

Hi - 

To create your own photoface 3D character (from a photo) - 

* open the editor and select the "3d" tab under "models"

* click on "Create your Own" button 

*  You will then need to activate the Flash option, close the editor and launch it again

* select the Flash option when you launch the editor.

Note: the "Photoface 3D" feature is the only SitePal feature that requires Flash - and it is required only for editing/creating your own 3D character. The created character does not require Flash to play when embedded on your website - it is an editing requirement only. This feature will soon be available in the HTML5 editor - obviating the need to use Flash.

* in the Flash editor - select the "3D" tab under "models".

* click on "Create your Own" button & follow step by step instructions to create your character.

If needed - please send a note to support@sitepal.com & we will help you out in more detail.

We'll be happy to schedule a walkthrough screen-share session and go over it with you.


Hope this helps,

Gil
