Re: Text to Speech
We just purchased TextAloud and will use it where appropriate. I've talked to other elearning developers who use text to speech exclusively. Their customers have agreed on this method of naration, citing some of the advantages you all have mentioned.
Just last month I wished Paul 16K had recorded the narration for a course that needed revisions. We ended up recording all the audio again because the original voice talent had move on to better things. We really didn't have time to re-record but had no choice.
I'm working on a new project now that I've used TextAloud for some samples to see how the customer likes the sound. Maybe they'll go for a computerized narrator.
