My read aloud feature when set on 1x is too fast and the 0.75x is too slow. I tried to adjust on my MacBookpro accessibilty area, but when I change the settings there, it doesn't transfer over to my logos book.
See the pause button when Read Aloud is active? Right beside it is a light gray (hard to see) speed indicator. Click the indicated speed to cycle through options. Not intuitive at all, but it works.
The keyboard command to have Mac read to you is Option + Esc; highlight the text you want read to you, give it a second or two as it may delay starting.
Thank you, but it's' not a matter of finding the speed adjuster, but that 1x is too fast and .75 is too slow. How do I find a happy medium?
The Mac speed adjuster is a slider unlike the Logos speed adjuster. The only unpleasant differences is the voice is not as natural and highlighting what you want read is not to my liking.
I found a good voice, but I still can't find a speed that I like, 1x is too fast and 75x is too slow. My MacBook Pro speed adjuster unfortunately does not affect the logos read aloud feature. When I set the Mac speed adjuster to a speed that I like, it does not translate onto my logos read aloud feature.
The readers are separate. The Logos reader and Mac readers are distinct. To have the Mac read to you use the steps I outlined to you. Highlight the text, then use the Option + Esc key board command, this will activate the settings you selected in Accessibility > Read & Speak > System Voice > "encircled" i > Rate "slider" > Done.
I think Ken wants his cake, and eat it too. Justifyably.
But he wants to eat it gentleman like, not too fast and neither too slow. The lack of Playback speed options has long been a bone of contention . I too, like Ken, would like much finer control over it, although my preference is for a little bit faster but not too much. We each like to savour our cake in our own way.

I'm not new to Logos, but I am new to syntax searching. Trying to do a simple syntax search with 1 John 2:5 as the basis. I want to see where else in the NT we have the phrase, "By this we know." Of course, I want the Greek construction, not just when the translators used those English words. I was able to successfully…
I had to reinstall Logos 4 on my desktop, but I am unable to sign in to Logos.com. It reports "Unable to connect to Logos.com." Obviously, I am online right now typing in a question. Why can't the software "sign in"?
I am curious - it says there are 9 standard libraries, one being Ultimate - but I don't see it mentioned anywhere else? Do you?
Will there be Verbum 2026 Libraries? Will there be German 2026 Libraries?
Is there a way to stop highlighting from adding a note each time I highlight something? Vince.
