Free Speech - Custom Text to Speech Synthesizer in AutoIt!!! (v.2, NEW VERSION!!!)

Hey guys, today I present my new project: a command line run, text to speech synthesizer that allows you to make your own voices! Sure, you could just use the SAPI system, but the variety of voices is extremely limited. So I made this. :)

All you need to know is included in the Read Me in the download, and it even includes a sample voice pack: Japanese Robot. (The reason for it being in Japanese is because I actually know all the sounds in that language. English is more complex... I may try and make a voice pack for it sometime though.)

Enjoy, and I really hope to see some feed back!

September 14, 2012 - Version 2 released!!! Please try it out and leave any bug reports/feed back!

- Fixed Japanese Robot voice pack's missing "ne" sound from the configuration.

- Free Speech will now only load required sounds, speeding up loading speeds considerably.

- New program to allow you to make voice packs quickly and easily.

nice,

how do you use it with other packs? do they need to be unpacked?

there seems to be a delay of ~5 seconds before the voice starts. do you also get that?

Yeah, its not perfect yet. The instructions to make your own packs are in the ReadMe, but here it is summed up: Create a folder with the name of your pack. Fill it with short sound files (such as .mp3 or .wav) of all the sounds you want in your voice pack. In Japanese, this would be a.mp3, i.mp3, ka.mp3, ra.mp3, and so on. Then create a text file called config.txt, It MUST be named that or it won't work. Inside that, put the number of sounds you have on the first line, put the speed in sounds per second on the second line, and then type, for example, the sound 'ga' in Japanese: ga|ga.mp3

Do this for all your sounds. Now in the actual program, when you type, 'ga' it will play 'ga.mp3'. Look at the one I provided to see exactly what I mean.

The 5 second delay is the program loading all the sounds into the program. I may change this in the future so it will only load that sounds it needs. This should speed it up. I also want to develop a program that makes it easier for the 'computer illiterate' to make sound packs. Stay tuned!
