Changing Speech Attributes

To determine the rate and pitch at which a speech channel is processing text, you can use the GetSpeechRate and GetSpeechPitch functions. The SetSpeechRate and SetSpeechPitch functions allow you to change rate and pitch.

The most robust of the Speech Manager's routines are the GetSpeechInfo and SetSpeechInfo functions. These allow you to obtain many types of information about a speech channel and to change many settings of a speech channel. To specify the operation that you wish to perform, you must pass GetSpeechInfo or SetSpeechInfo a selector. A full list of selectors is provided in "Speech Information Selectors" beginning on page 4-39.
