Thanks to raycock for posting a new Samantha v2.00 that actually works.
Thanks to raycock for leading me to several new updates.
Thanks to dferron for leading me to find the new non-TTS voices for the GPS models that use the large filesize voice engine as well as the TTS Sangeeta voice. And thanks for pointing out the GMapTool site. The new nuvi 2597, in addition to using the new large Real Voice files like TTS3 Samantha, also offers smaller voice files and yet another name: American English Michelle 2.00.
VOICES FOR GARMIN GPS NUVI 2757 FREE SERIES
Thanks to charlesd45 for confirming that another of the xxx7 series beyond the 3597 uses Real Voice files and for further confusing me with the new nuvi 2597 model and probably many other of the new 2013 nuvi xxx7 models: I'm not quite sure where to place this so I'll offer it here for now. I also have seen some Garmin TTS2 files but haven't found which devices use(d) them. Also noted is that there are now appearing some Garmin voices that are TTS3 which may for the new nuvi xxx7 series (or maybe just the nuvi 3597) devices that use new Real Voice files. Thanks to MikeG1 and joegambino for quickly finding newer voice updates.
VOICES FOR GARMIN GPS NUVI 2757 FREE SOFTWARE
Voice, British-English, Serena (TTS3) software version Voice, Australian English-Karen (TTS)(v) software version (for the low-quality voices- note the (v) after the (TTS)) Voice, Australian English-Karen (TTS) software version In general for now, look for internet search hits that are something like: I find the best way is to do an internet search for (minus the quotes) "garmin voice version karen" and substituting the name desired in place of Karen when doing the search-or for the newest nuvis, search for (minus the quotes) "garmin voice version serena tts3" for current updates with similar substitutions of your desired name in place of Serena.
These voice change logs can be hard to find. But my yellow Post-It is really all I need now if I keep it updated. I think that most older nuvis (e.g., my 750 and 855) require delving into hidden developer screens to find voice versions. I also was pleasantly surprised to see that my nuvi 2460 shows the voice version being used in the Tools/Settings/System/About page. Samantha, 2.70, 10/2/18 (also offers Real Voice) Note: the devices that use the above large filesize TTS voices also have the following non-TTS voices:Īustralian Matilda, 1.00, possibly 12/7/11 Name, Current_version, Garmin's_webpage_date(m/d/y) Please note that the nuvi model you have will dictate the TTS voices you can use-if your nuvi uses the low-quality voice engine, you need the small files and if your nuvi uses the high-quality voice engine, it uses the large files and the newest nuvis now use the TTS3 files. If you find updates or corrections to my list, please advise. Since Jack is the name used for both the high and low quality voice files, I have both listed-they are NOT interchangeable-WebUpdater or Garmin Express will offer you the one you can use. I can never keep my voice versions straight so I now have a Post-It note with my English-language TTS findings. Note: if you're just interested in the results without details, check the faq:Įlsewhere in the Factory's fourms, jfossy posted that there's a new Garmin nuvi "Jill," version 3.20, which offers "Improved road name pronunciations." In searching, I think that Karen, Samantha and probably Jack were also updated at about the same time with the same improvement.
