eSpeak is a compact open source software speech synthesizer for English
|
||
|
|
and other languages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different synthesis
|
||
|
|
method from other open source text to speech (TTS) engines, and sounds
|
||
|
|
quite different. It's perhaps not as natural or "smooth", but some find
|
||
|
|
the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for long periods. It
|
||
|
|
can run as a command line program to speak text from a file or from stdin.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build without portaudio support, set WAVONLY=yes in the script's
|
||
|
|
environment.
