No, there is really only one voice. What they call voice 1 and voice 2
refers to whether it is speaking the frequency or the s meter.
In the 480 and 590, with the VGS-1 board, you can adjust the speed of
playback, but I don't think you can do this in the 2000's VS-3.
The 590 will also let you choose between English and Japanese, so
there's your 2 voices.
