FreeTTS
FreeTTS is a speech
synthesis system written entirely in the
Java programming language. It is based upon Flite: a small run-time speech synthesis engine developed at
Carnegie Mellon University. Flite is derived from the
Festival Speech Synthesis System from the
University of Edinburgh and the FestVox project from Carnegie Mellon University.
There is active development happening in the FreeTTS project.
The voice quality is good and FreeTTS supports end-of-speech markers. Gnopernicus uses these in a number of places: to know when text should and should not be interrupted, to better concatenate speech, and to sequence speech in different voices.
