9 hours ago I had the wonderful idea to build up from scratch Festival TTS on Windows. In the meanwhile, and in less than 30 minutes, I build up the same source code on Linux, but only because tons of development tools were already installed :D Also this morning I downloaded FreeTTS. I started a simple testing project in less of 10 min...
I'm trying to compile Festival on MingW32, so I can have a Windows binary. I couldn't find the Windows binary on their site. Anyone have one they can post? If not, here's what I have so far. I did the ./configure and make for it and have the following message: $ make config/config:43: ../speech_tools/config/config: No such file or ...
I'm not blind, I just want to have a way to have my Windows machine read the contents of a buffer outloud. Here are the basic requirements: Read any English text buffer. Pause the reading at any time and resume at any time (not wait a few minutes for a big buffer to finish when someone walks into my office). Adjust the read-back speed...
I am working on improving Festival on Emacs. I need better control of Festival when it reads a sentence. Basically, I need two things: Show what word is being read. Change the speed (and maybe pitch) of what is being read. Ideally, there would be some data structure output by Festival that would link offset/length (usually the star...
I am using Festival, a text-to-speech synthesizer, for a project. It has a Scheme scripting language. I'm very new to scheme and hope someone can help. I just want to see the current configuration parameters of Festival. I have a Scheme prompt and can change existing parameters with the following commands: festival> (Parameter.set ...
I'm trying to use a text-to-speech engine, festival, in Windows. I found a pre-compiled binary online, so I can't really re-compile without a whole lot of effort. Here's what happens. I run the program from cmd.exe and try to see the definition for a function: festival> utt.synth #<CLOSURE (utt) (begin "(utt.synth UTT) The main ...
I'd like to use Festival in an iPhone app. Is this possible, considering the way Festival generates and then plays back audio files? Can I pass Festival an audio file directly from itself to play back? or is there a different way to read things? Is there another Text-to-speech engine for C/C++ to use with iphone? EDIT: Free is better....

Hi, I am having problems with the festival C++ API (Windows XP). After I make both festival and speech_tools succesfully (Cygwin), I have a file, called festival_example.cc, which contains: #include <stdio.h> #include <festival.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { EST_Wave wave; int heap_size = 210000; // default scheme heap...
I'm reasonably lisp-capable, but a total newbie to Festival. I have a server that my sysadmin has outfitted with festival 1.96 (apparently there's no FreeBSD port of 2.x, and he's intensely reluctant to install software where no port exists) that does NOT have the 'text2wave' app; if that's part of a BSD port, it's not obvious which one....

If we develop a voice under Festival , how can that be used with FreeTTS? ...
If I feed a speech synthesizer (festival, in this case, but it applies to all) the following bit of text: "At the USPGA championship in the US, the BBC reporter went MIA". it reads "At the uspga championship in the us, the BBC reporter went mia". In other words, I guess that because it's a cluster of consonants, it reads "BBC" properl...
