It allows you to switch between voices quickly, change the speed at which the voice speaks, change its pitch and volume. Lastly, the Speech Properties window is the handiest tool in Speakonia. You simply type what you want the voice to say into the text box. The Text Box is where you will spend most of your time in the program. The toolbar has some saving feature shortcuts, as well as commands for playing, pausing, and stopping the voice from reading the text that has been entered into the text box. The Menu Bar is mostly for working with saving and exporting files, as well as registering the program. The Speakonia interface consists of 4 main elements: the menu bar, the toolbar, the text box, and the 'Speech Properties' Box. It can also be installed in several languages. The user can also change the speed and volume of the voice with the sliders below the drop-down menu.
The user can change the voice at any time by going to the drop-down menu labeled Voice under the Speech Properties, and selecting another voice. A user simply has to type what they want the voice to say, and when they click the button that looks like a play button, the selected text-to-speech voice will read it. The graphical user interface is similar to Notepad, in a technical way. Speakonia itself is fairly simple to use for the average user, regardless of its skill level.
