You can use the link below to view which language packs contain speech packs, just scroll down to the VOICE section, and in the P2ATC manual, page 112, it shows how to add a language pack.

Not every voice is great for English language readbacks but they're free and they're good quality.

Combined with my Ivona voices, I now have a different voice for every controller, at last..

 

I have no clue how this link helps with the downloading of new voices for P2A!

1. In the P2ATC manual, page 112, it shows how to add a language pack.

2. The link is only there to show which language packs contain voices, just scroll down to the VOICE section

Still have no idea how to download language packs

 

1. Windows 10 Settings

2. Time & Language

3. (Side menu) Region & Language

4. + Add a Language

5. Select a Language (from the list in the link that I posted, so you can be sure the language pack actually contains a voice)

6. Click on the Language name and click Options (there are three choices - Set as Default - Options - Remove)

7. Click Download in the Speech section

8. Restart Windows once download is complete

9. Congratulations, you have downloaded a language pack with speech and these steps are clearly outlined in the manual.

Toby, thanks for the detail.  Sorry for being a little dense.

 

 

I know this is necro'd, but this is valid and useful.  I've added many language voices, but only Zira, David, and Hazel show up in P2ATC.
Am I missing something?
