Learning experience: Acapela speaks astronomy.

Maxfactory, a multimedia developer specialized in the astronomy field, has chosen Acapela text to speech to simplify the learning experience of end-users reaching for the stars. Acapela plays the part of the teacher by lively commenting graphics, illustrations, exercises, videos and 3D animations, creating powerful and efficient interactivity and turning the user manual reading duty into a new way to learn how to fully benefit from their newly acquired high-end computerized telescope.

"Acapela text to speech allows us to quickly generates high quality voice prompts, at a very competitive price, with absolute flexibility to rephrase, adapt and change any prompt whenever we need to during the development phase," said Massimo Uberti, Maxfactory Manager "which results in creating a user friendly interface to help our end-users get started with their astronomy material as easily as possible."

Text to speech voice prompts used on the Maxfactory CD were generated with Virtual Speaker, from Acapela. Virtual Speaker is a virtual recording studio in which you can create your own voice messages as and when you need them, sparing you the normal development and organization constraints of conventional recording sessions and without having to invest in costly material.

Virtual Speaker reads any text file out loud and clear, with the rich natural voice of Acapela's high quality text to speech, and therefore simplifies your creation and updating processes.

The voice files are generated whenever they are needed. Because Virtual Speaker perfectly answers a specific vocalization content demand, it already gives the say to multimedia tools, e-learning programs, call centers, public address broadcast or online help applications.
