Hey guys. See, I have managed to hack unhackable acapella voice. Shut up Grim, you didn't hack anything. You just used its registered web API to shut off the music. Oh no. I have even automated the web API. And doing this via simple Python script. Oh damn man. What crazy things you do.

lol that was great man yeah wait I want to ask something so if we for example if for example I was a programmer and I knew how to work with voice cloning and all of these and I made a model and I trained a model on texts read with a with any acapella voice I want if I want to do that and I trained this model on acapella and then use it as a sappy voice will that be illegal I mean I'm just asking if like I create the voice based on another voice is that considered illegal or not because that would if that wouldn't be that would be very good because then we can you make our own voices you

Hey Anna, one of your posts doesn't even have audio on it. I just heard your screen reader and you didn't say anything. You might want to consider proofreading your audio before sending it.

So I don't really remember that I've ever come across any Polish voice so apparently this is a later version that you've been testing so what I'd like to ask is whether any anyone can just PM me with the link to this latest version. I just want to try out the new languages and voices so thanks in advance.

Hey guys. So, Eloquence and keynote gold were 2 of the first synthesizers I heard, because I had a BrailleNote Apex. Then it was Acapela, then the Microsoft voices. The first time I heard Ivona was on the Amazon echo devices. I currently use Ivona Salli. Eloquence is one of my least favorite, just couldn't use it as a daily driver. I will use ESpeak if I have to, but that's only on a few occasions. I use Ivona Salli on my computer and Amazon fire tablet. She is one of my favorite voices.

Hey guys, it's Mackenzie, and this is, I know it's been forever since this thread has been updated, but, personally, just like, uh, Jelly, I'm sorry I can't get your name right, I'm sorry. Um, I was also born at a time where natural things were becoming, or kinda sorta have become, a thing. And, me personally... ... The synthesizer I first heard was Eloquence, and I'm not a fan of it. The second one, well, I wouldn't say speech synthesizer, but... ... ...I would say the next TTS voice I've heard was the Amazon voice, which, I'm not going to say her name, because, well, yeah. And then... ...I don't know. But, me personally... ...I like using more of the... ...natural stuff, like Vocalizer, and... ...some of the... ...the natural voices from the... ...Microsoft... ...thing... ...on my... ...computer. I do have that available on my phone. ...Currently, what I'm using right now, on my phone... ...and I can show you... ...real quick... ...is actually... ...eSpeak. Watch. ... ...Oh. ...What happened, TalkBack? Hang on. ... ...Oh, it's... ...Hang on, let me restart TalkBack. Um... ...SortNation. ...SortNation sent to speech navigator. ...Uh, why are you using... ...15% speech... speech rate... ...black... ...refer... ...refer... ...sent to... ...navigator. ...One new item... ...weather... ...in data... ...Excu... ...Hang on. ...SortNation menu... ...read TalkBack's title... ...in list... ...anyways... ...sortNation... ...sortNation. ...sortNation. ...one new item... ...sortNation. ...sortNation. ...sortNation. ...and then there... ...and then it goes back... ...to normal. ...I don't know what's wrong with eSpeak on Android, but... ... ...it... ...it needs to be fixed. ...anyways... ...I can use the Samsung TTS, but... ...I really shouldn't because of simple reasons... ...I mean it... ...it... ...it's responsive... ...right? ...like... ...if... ...I mean... ...look... ...I... ...I don't need absolute responsiveness, but... ...you know... ...that's just me... ...but... ...if... ...Samsung TTS... ...has to... ...ends up glitching out... ...or something... ...that's where I'll just use eSpeak. ...I'm actually using eSpeak... ...using the... ... ...shut up... ...sorry about that, that was my phone going off... ...and... ...that's pretty much... ...that's pretty much... ...um... ...yeah... ...um... ...I do also use Ivona... ...oh... ...and yeah, there goes my thing... ...so...

Anyways, what I was going to say before I got interrupted was that, um, that was what I have. I also have RH Voice on my phone, um, because I was going to say, also I was going to say, I don't know if I said this, but I'm actually using eSpeak via the CSR thing, like the TTS thing that it has, and be quiet Mastodon, and it is usable. I mean, like, you don't need, like, if you have that screen reader installed, you literally have eSpeak installed, and if you want to know how I managed to get the eSpeak voice to sound just like it does in NVDA, let me know and I can show you how I did it. And, I don't know, Google TTS, like, I'd use it if I had to, but I can't, I kind of can't because Google TTS is not, it's not optimized. Um, for use with any screen readers, or, any screen reader, whatsoever. Even using a higher quality one, and I know this from experience, I, if I was to use something like a Pixel, that's where I'd totally resort to eSpeak, because, not only is it free, but, I mean, it's responsive, but, like I said, I don't rely too much on that part, but you know. I, was able to, use eSpeak on my Fire Tablet which is dead right now, with, uh, CSR. It's too bad I can't use it with VoiceHelp, because I don't know I've owned, like, a laptop or, Uh, ogl- can't use it with voice view, because I don't know, I've owned a laptop or, uh, ogl- can't use it with voice view, because I don't know I've owned a laptop or, Uh, using a mime-osmosis laptop. Can't use it with voice view, because, I don't know I've owned a laptop or, Uh, ogl- Like, I love that synthesizer, but it's way too darn laggy on freaking Amazon devices. And, like, I can barely even use it. But, Sally on the computer, she's just, she's just awesome. She is just another one of my favorite voices, actually. Anyways, I think I'm... I may have to stop this recording, because otherwise I'm going to get cut off again. And I know I probably shouldn't have been doing this on a dead forum, but, you know what? Screw it. You know what? Bring it back. Screw it. Let's bring it back, guys. Anyways.

Amazon Alexa voice back in 2019 when I used to have an Alexa and then I had a Google Home in 2020 and that was probably my first time I heard the Google Assistant voices and also I heard Microsoft SAM as well that was like say 2015-2014 and all the other Microsoft voices from various Windows models I do not like eSpeak personally because it sounds robotic and it's sometimes it can give me a headache

My favorite voice is the Google Assistant English United States default voice. It is my favorite personally.

What about speech synthesizer voices? I like the vocalizer's voices, such as premium high version of Nathan, embedded compact variant of Daniel, and premium high versions of Tom and Ava. Also, I like the Microsoft Cortana's assistant voice. It's very good to use. But Cortana is discontinued. Also, I like the Windows 11 Natural voices. For English, it's very good to use with Narrator.

#97

Interesting, why didn't they do a natural voice for Russian language. Albeit I know that microsoft edge read aloud has lots of naturl voices for lots of language, but that haven't integrated those to narrator for some weird reason.

um yeah even though even though cortana aka um microsoft eva is discontinued you can still installer on your system and i think that's gonna be permanent even if it is discontinued because um it's actually it's pretty much supposed to be part of the system actually i mean the app might be gone but you know i i i i i it's still a part of the system you can't get rid of it so you can still you can uh still get her sorry about the background noise but um you can still get her and i don't i don't i mean the thing may be discontinued but i don't see the voices going anywhere especially eva because she's also one of my favorite voices too and yeah yeah sorry about the background noise guys anyways

#99

In fact, I have a file you can use to get all of the OneCore voices for sapi. Don't, worry, it still works on windows 11.

And Eva still works on my system. I'm using her right now.
