Professional guidance helps The device powers on and vibrates immediately, but achieving intelligible speech with an electrolarynx requires learning proper placement, timing, and technique — skills that take weeks to develop and are meaningfully improved with SLP guidance. Choosing the wrong pitch profile or placement method without professional input leads to poor intelligibility. professional_recommended rather than professional_required because motivated users can self-learn with resources, but outcomes are substantially better with clinical support.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 7, 2026

The Provox TruTone Plus is an electrolarynx — a handheld device held against the throat that generates vibration to create voice for people who cannot produce speech through their larynx, typically after a laryngectomy (surgical removal of the voice box due to cancer or injury). It transmits sound through the neck tissue, and the user shapes that sound into words with their mouth. This is a complete, ready-to-use device that includes a rechargeable battery, oral adapter and tubes (for those who can't achieve good neck contact), and a micro-USB charging cord. The pressure-sensitive button allows natural variation in expression — pressed harder for emphasis — and masculine or feminine pitch profiles are available with adjustment. New users almost always benefit from working with a speech-language pathologist experienced in laryngectomy rehabilitation to develop intelligible speech, as electrolarynx technique takes real practice; buying this without that support is possible but rarely optimal.

What Setup Looks Like

  • Out of the box
    1. Charge the device via micro-USB before first use.
    2. Select masculine or feminine voice mode and adjust pitch to a comfortable level.
    3. Hold the device firmly against the side of the throat (or use the oral adapter if neck contact is insufficient) and press the button while mouthing words to produce speech.
  • With professional help
    1. A speech-language pathologist (SLP) specializing in laryngectomy rehabilitation should assess neck tissue quality, recommend neck vs. oral placement, and provide technique training.
    2. Expect 3–6 sessions over several weeks to develop consistent, intelligible electrolarynx speech. See Atos Medical support resources for detailed instructions.
