TTS - LONG pauses?
my team is criticizing that there is not enough of a breath between each bulleted item. But when I manually add silence in the audio file, I can no longer update the text because it overwrites my silences. Any way to add silences in the script itself? I looked it up and cannot find out how to do it.

you can use SSML tags for create/update TextToSpeech
e.g.
<speak>
bullet point one
<break time="1000ms"/>
bullet point two
<break time="1000ms"/>
bullet point three
<break time="1000ms"/>
bullet point four
</speak>more SSML infos:
