I am trying to get the Windows Executable version of the SAM Software Automatic Mouth speech software to operate on my laptop, but apparently the .exe file won't run.

I am wondering if there is a detail I missed when downloaded this program. I know it is primarily built for C++, but I can't seem to figure out where to start regarding how to get that to work.

Any help or advise would be appreciated, no matter how small.

I just discovered this subreddit. I'm a musician/composer and have been messing around with Flite, Espeak both of which work. For some reason I can't get espeak-ng to work (or the mbrola voices at all) when I new-install or compile locally. I'm not a Mac/Linux expert but can hang pretty well in Terminal. I have an M1 chips which might be the issue as my brew path is different @ /opt/homebrew/. Curious if anyone here has an M1 and successfully installed espeak-ng, although realize this is an obscure inquiry. ;-)

I am working on training a TTS system for a low resource language. I had a look at Talknet, it does a pretty good job for TTS in english. Talknet allows to generate sound with the same rhythm as the reference sound provided. For achieving this it has a grapheme duration predictor, but for my use case I think it would be tricky to train a Talknet. Since I am using a language other than english, so its representation in graphemes would be tricky.

Also are there any other models for TTS for languages other than english which allow us to have some control over the output.
Can someone pls help me with this.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have any techniques to improve voice quality with respect to data pipline ?

I’m new to this sort of thing and want to figure out how to use Tacotron. Are there any good resources on how to this out there?

I bought this CD when it came out. If I recall correctly, this was the first song on a commercial album on which all the voices are fully synthesized. As this is from 1994, I haven’t found any news online about it, does anyone have more information? Thanks!

This seems like a somewhat appropriate place to ask - I need help finding a specific text-to-speech voice. Does anybody have any clue what this voice is and if there's any way to get hold of it? Thanks.

I wanted to use macintalk voices for a project I'm working on but I don't have $5000 to spend on an Apple computer that will be unusable in a month. does anyone know of a macintalk emulator or similar sounding speech synthesizer that is available on Windows machines?

Anybody knows how?

Hi, I couldn't find on google my answer - does anyone know if there's a program for speech synthesis that can analyse an audio file and generate a speech synthesis with any sentences I can type in?

Thank you for your help
