I just got the latest version of Poser 7 and am having difficulty with Talk Designer.
The Poser  manual says that I must use a .WAV file for the AUDIO portion. However when I use AT&T's Text to speech Demo, the .WAV file that's produced, is not compatable with (Supported by) Talk Designer.
Any Ideas??

I tried using the ATT demo just now.  The generated file works OK for me. 

I checked it in an audio editor, and the ATT file has a sampling rate of 16K,
which is unusual..... nevertheless, Poser takes it and uses it.

This is on a PC; may well be different on a Macintosh, because the
standard Apple sound file is AIFF instead of WAV.

Yeah- sometimes voice synthesis files are funky.

I've 2 text to speech softwares. TextAloud and 2nd Speech center. Both work just fine. But TextAloud can use the ATT voices where 2nd Speech get all broken up.

It's not just the differance between sap14 and sap15. I think it's just in the programing.

try using a "mono" sound instead of a "stereo" one. I heard talk designer cant read stereo. I dont know how to figure that out but what I did is I have this software called wavepad in which I can save sound files in mono.

I'm trying to use talk Designer for the first time. Poser 8 on Windows. When I try to import a .wav file...INCLUDING THE .WAV files included with poser, I get a pop up "The audio format is not recognized by Poser, and then another saying This audio format is not supported for lipsync. Any suggestions?
