Pitch Property

  • Article

[Microsoft Agent is deprecated as of Windows 7, and may be unavailable in subsequent versions of Windows.]

Description

Returns a Long integer for the specified character's speech output (TTS) pitch setting.

Syntax

agent**.Characters ("CharacterID").Pitch**

Remarks

This property applies only to characters configured for TTS output. If the character does not support TTS output, this property returns zero (0).

Although your application cannot write this value, you can include Pit (pitch) tags in your output text that will temporarily increase the pitch for a particular utterance. However, using the Pit tag to change the pitch will not change the Pitch property setting. For further information, see Speech Output Tags.
