New to Mac OS/Lion and liking the new text-to-speech voices a lot. I use it regularly for news articles and textbook materials.
Now the question is how do I automatically shuffle among few voices every 30 mins or after every other selected text is read? The same voice gets dry no matter how natural they sound, so some automatic variation would be great.
Is it possible to set it up in Automator? new to this app too, please explain the steps in plain language. So far I got to "watch me do" and change the voice via Marco...but I want it to run in the background, like some switching code via Terminal, dispatched after every hotkey of "speak selected text" is triggered or dispatched on a regular time interval.
