Selecting a voice
About computer voices
Your Blue&Me-TomTom makes use of text-to-speech technology to generate computer
voices. A text-to-speech program converts written text, for example an instruction like
“Turn right”, into the sound of a human voice.
The text-to-speech program looks at the whole sentence to make sure that the sound you
hear is as close to the real thing as possible. The program is also able to recognise and
quite accurately pronounce foreign towns and street names. For example, the English
voice can read French street names.
Note: If you select a recorded voice, this will only be able to announce commands, but
not street names. If you would like street names to be announced, you will need to select
a computer voice.
Internal and external speakers
Your Blue&Me-TomTom contains a high quality speaker. This is used to play all the sounds
on your Blue&Me-TomTom unless you select to play some sounds through external
speakers.
The following types of sound can be played through the speakers as listed below:
Spoken instructions and warnings:
The speaker inside your Blue&Me-TomTom
Using an audio cable (not possible when your device is connected to Blue&Me).
Phone calls
The speaker inside your Blue&Me-TomTom
Note: If you wish to use an audio cable (only possible when your device is not connected
to Blue&Me), an Active Dock with an audio connector is available as an accessory. Your
car stereo needs a line-in connector. Not all car stereos have line-in connectors. Check the
instructions for you car stereo for more information.
Voice
preferences
To change the voice being used by your Blue&Me-TomTom, tap
Voices in the Preferences menu, then tap Change voice. Select a
voice from the list.
Your Blue&Me-TomTom has two different kinds of voices:
Computer voices
These are generated by your Blue&Me-TomTom. They provide
spoken instructions while you are driving and can pronounce
street names and announce messages, traffic reports, weather
reports, tips and tutorials.
•Human voices
These are recorded by an actor.
Note: Human voices only provide spoken instructions.
