Wow, im extremely impressed with the quality of Text to Speech AT&T has come up with.. Check it out for youself... I think the Male voice sounds a little more realistic than the female one, but i dunno, both sound good...

An easy way to create a soundbyte or two.

Great for the ego, too ("You, Hossenfeffer, are my light, my soul, my everything. It is you whom I worship!")

(note to self: Step -away- from the Text to Speech generator. It's not that funny)
 
yeah, they do say bad words. In one instance of how its still a bit unnatural, f*** you is pronounced fu-kew.
 
Sounds pretty good if you use extremely common words. However, the female voice mispronounced "put" when I typed in a classic line from "Cruel Intentions". 😉

This is pretty funny. 🙂
 
I typed this in 30 word chuncks. hee hee

Hello.

My name is Dr. Sbaitso.
I am here to help you.
Please say whatever is on your mind freely.
Our conversation will be kept in strict confidence.

So, tell me about your problems.
 
I used to LOVE Dr. Spatiso... What about that annoing damn parrot 🙂
 
Damn I wish my answering machine sounded nice like this... Come to think of it, why the fvck doesn't it sound like that? I mean, it's just a recorded voice; it's not computer generated - so they purposely recorded it to sound like a computer. BOO.
 
that is pretty good. didn't old macs have something like this. I remember setting it to say 100 pages of text and starting at the end of school when we left.
 
Check this out.......link. This is a new feature where you can send a text message from your 2-way pager to any unblocked phone. There is a link to a demo that will call you with a demo message. Yes.....this is a shameless plug for the company I work for.....Weblink Wireless.🙂
 
Is it recorded? Im pretty sure its computer generated cause you can type in proper names and it will say them, dunno exactally how they would do that... Unless it was broken down into syllables or something of the sort.. Anyone know?
 
Once you have the sound sample, how can you save it?
It must be cached SOMEWHERE on the HD...any ideas on how to find it?
 
You might want to search your temp directories or internet cache for a wav file.......


Actually......after it plays in media player.....click on File....Save as, then you should be able to save it......
 
PM me if you want a downloaded version of this program
i have it on my hard drive... 36 megs..
i had the link to it, but i lost it
 
I've got mine set up so that I can open or save the sample.

(There is a limit of 30 words per utterance and 40 accesses per day per site.)
 
I called my brother once and used one of these. It was hilarious. I was pretending I was a hostage taker calling him for negotiations or something. About 10 seconds in he laughed and heard me typing 🙁
 
Anyone know what program this guy used at this site: LINKY

Its almost Stephen Hawking like.. 🙂
 
I must have WAV files set to play on the integrated-browser media player.
There does nto seem to be any menu which would contain a save option.
Is there?
or
How do I change the WAV setting so that it will play on a stand alone player?
