Hi,
I'd like to purchase a good quality Hebrew Audio Bible from Logos - any chance of this? I already have the Greek one and the pronunciation for both.
Cheers,
John

We should ask Faithlife to incorporate the Hebrew Audio Bible (by Abraham Shmuelof) on Academy of Ancient Languages: http://www.aoal.org/hebrew_audiobible.htm
Would be really cool.

That's the best Hebrew Audio OT I have found. It would be great to have it in Logos.

I agree: that recording is quite good and would be tremendously useful in Logos.
I find that listening to relatively fluent recordings of Greek and Hebrew aids my long-term memory and overall comprehension of ancient-biblical (and extrabiblical) texts and translations. I would be grateful to have access to such recordings in Logos (also to a Modern Greek or "Restored Koine" Greek New Testament recording(s)).

I've been using that for a couple of months and I m very happy, but I often loose the visual sync with the text (a bit similar situation as following the ice hockey during the game)
Having the Hebrew audio in Logos in the same way as the Greek audio would be an advantage.
Reading aloud the texts for an audience was common in ancient times? Also audio is being used increasingly in the current Bible translation and distribution https://www.wycliffe.org.uk/blog/2015/12/the-changing-face-of-bible-translation-2/
This is the very top of my wishlist for Logos. I need my hebrew audio Bible to be of better quality than the one I have and built into logos. I'd like both my hebrew audio Bible and my greek one to work on mobile apps. I find it crucial for building my fluency.
My $$ are ready for a pre-pub (let's skip the CP and go straight to pre-pub!!).
I think it's time to collate some of the many suggestions for a Hebrew Audio Bible in Logos. I chose this thread because it appears to have the most posts/requests.
First, there are many suggestions on the Logos forums (arranged chronologically, except for the last thread, which is found in the Logos 6 forum):

Second, interest has also been expressed in some of the reviews for Randall Buth's and Vincent Setterholm's Hebrew Audio Pronunciations.
Third, there's at least one suggestion for Audio Hebrew on the Logos 6 UserVoice site. It appears that the forums have received far greater attention than UserVoice.
I think the general interest in Hebrew and Greek audio resources reinforce this suggestion. Audio can help almost any Greek or Hebrew student read with greater comprehension and ease.
Yes please.

Same here, John.
An interesting interview with Randall Buth was recently posted on the Biblical Language Center Blog (link). Listening to Greek and Hebrew audio recordings is a key component to building fluency and learning to read the biblical languages with increasing ease. Having a Hebrew audio Bible integrated directly into Logos would be a boon to practically anyone interested in the biblical languages—including students, pastors, and teachers at every level.
Anyone else interested?
I would be interested in discussing this further if anyone from Logos is biting. For one thing, I encourage my online students to use audio to build their fluency. If Logos had this option, it would allow me to promote use of Logos in my courses. Additionally, I have been attempting to promote accessibility for people who use synthetic speech. There is, in fact, Hebrew support in Voiceover (IOS devices) It is very good. With improved accessibility for these devices, a modicum of audio support could be enabled.

We're interested in offering a Hebrew audio Bible at some point. It's been on the list for a while. I'll look into it again and see what we can do.
Good to hear, Phil. Thanks for the response.
