the ATT voices are the best. But to use them (or the default system voice) you need to remove the line "Set tts.Voice = tts.GetVoices("Name=Microsoft Mary", "Language=409").Item(0)" from the texttowave.vbs.
-
Yes, but I already had a copy of ATT Natural Voices that I bought (~35.00USD) with my copy of TextAloud MP3 from www.nextuptech.com about 2 years ago.
To enable them, simply remove the line that selects Mary in texttomp3. Audiolicious should now use the default system voice. To change the default voice go to the speech control panel. I believe there are free SAPI5 compliant voices availiable through Carnegie Mellon's FestVox project (http://festvox.org) but I'm not sure... -
With text-to-speech on your portable device (e.g. PocketPC with Fonix iSpeak), you don't need to waste space storing MP3's. I have a Perl script that with a single click reads a URL or text block from the Windows clipboard and enqueues it for listening in iSpeak. It also strips headers/footers from my favorite sites in an extensible way.
-
Evidently you can change the rate as follows:
tts.Rate = 1
where Rate goes from -10 to 10. Pitch is probably similar - experiment! -
Could you give me an explanation on how to skip past the headers? I know you can, but am having trouble. Once again, thank you for your innovation.

Hi presidentbryce - open audiolicious.rb with Notepad and go to where it says "gsub" a lot. Then add the following line:
text = text.gsub(/.*superduper.*/, " ")
this will eliminate all lines that contain the word "superduper". Be sure not to put any punctuation in there, as that may mess things up. This specification is called a "regular expression". If you stick with letters you'll be ok.
Keep adding lines like the above as necessary.
