Does anyone know if the improved speach now has tonal control?
For languages such as Chinese, Thai etc., tonal control is very
important. You could sort of fudge the sounds with the old
synthesizer, but tonal control was (almost) impossible. By tonal
control I mean rising and falling tones, not simply monotonic
at a specific frequency.
