Has anyone chosen to stick with the original Cove voice instead of the advanced voice?

Key Points

  • ユーザーはCoveの「オリジナル音声」を既に使っていたが、いつの間にか「advanced voice(高度な音声)」が自動有効化されたと感じている。
  • advanced voiceは機能や可能性が増える一方で、ユーザー本人には“人間らしい自然な存在感”が薄れて物足りなく感じられた。
  • 結果として新機能を一部捨てても、慣れや好みの理由からオリジナル音声のまま継続する判断をした。
  • 「自分だけなのか?」という形で、同様にオリジナルを選び続けている人の有無をコミュニティに問いかけている。

I was already using the Cove voice when the advanced voice mode started rolling out. From what I remember, it was automatically enabled for me. But honestly, I couldn’t really adapt to it.

It’s not that the advanced voice is bad at all. It has more features and more possibilities. But for me, it felt like something was missing. That natural, more “human” presence I had with the original Cove voice.

Maybe it’s just habit, I don’t know. But I ended up sticking with the original Cove voice, even if that meant giving up the new features.

Just wondering… am I the only one?
