How to get better Text to speech voices in Captivate 12?
Hello,
Finally starting a new, fairly simple project in Captivate 12 after wrapping up many legacy projects in Captivate Classic.
I’ve hit a stumbling block:
The Text to Speech voices all seem very robotic – I don’t see any filter options or way to add better voices.
I see @Paul Wilson has ‘Adam – British’ in this video here:

& the enhanced search/filter for voices shown here is something I don’t see:

A screenshot of my options is attached.
We don’t need it for Closed Captions so tempted just to use Artlist or similar and import separately but it would be nice, and perhaps more practical for future updates and translations if it was all contained within Captivate 12.
Captivate tells me it’s up to date and running V.12.4.0.20
Thank you for any help, tips etc in advance.
