Text to Speech

[Delphine]

Does anybody know of a good preferably free text to speech program?

Ideally, I'd like a female who will repeat back in American English.

Thanks for any help.

Try these:

IBM Research text-to-speech

AT&T Text to Speech Online

or for more realistic AT&T goodness, AT&T Natural Voices


Or you could download:

Sh-t Talkerhttp://unaesthetic.net/st/ (funny as heck)

or Sayit


On the commercial side:

You could become a Beta tester for Read Please

or try the shareware http://www.bytecool.com/voices.htm


Hope this gives you some jumping-off places.

if you use fruity loops there is a speech synthisis plugin built in.
