testing speechSynthesis voices

[magician11]

I want to listen to every voice available uttering the same phrase to choose one.

var testPhrase = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance("Hello there!");

window.speechSynthesis.getVoices().forEach(function(voice) {

        testPhrase.voice = voice.voiceURI;
        console.log(voice.voiceURI);
        window.speechSynthesis.speak(testPhrase);
});

This doesn’t work as the voices get changed while the first voice is speaking. How do I delay the voice changing until the utterance is done?

Thanks :)

Maybe this code is better… but still the same issue of the delay.

        var testPhrase = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance("Hello there!");

        for (var voice in allVoices) {

            console.log(allVoices[voice]);
            testPhrase.voice = allVoices[voice];
            window.speechSynthesis.speak(testPhrase);
        }
