Many educational support services provide audio tape versions of
text books and other materials for their auditory learners. The
difficulty in the past has been recording large volumes in a timely
way. Now with Dolphin Producer there is a very simple software
solution. Text can be scanned or loaded electronically, and then
converted rapidly into a Realspeak synthetic speech file stored as
DAISY MP3 and delivered by email, podcast or CD to the student. The
student plays the audio file on their CD player, DAISY player, MP3
player – or even their mobile phone! So they have access to printed
materials just as quickly as their print reading peers, and with the
same portability.
The premier tool for the creation of DAISY digital talking books
(synchronised audio and text) that can be searched and navigated.
