Hi all
I have always received wonderful advice from this group which successfully solved my previous problems. Thanks you all.
I installed festival 1.4.3, a speech synthesis system couple of days back. It is not working properly. This is what I did.
$echo 'Hello world' > temp $festival --tts temp
when the last command is executed, I hear some sound but definitely not hello world. It sounds as if saying hello world at ultra-fast speed. Is there anything I need to tinker around before running festival? I googled a bit around but had no luck.
Just to note, I have the same problem, no solution.
Peace.
I made some progress in the last couple of days. In /etc/festival.scm, add the following lines and it works reasonably well. Clarity is not that great, but "hello world" sounds as "hello world" atleast.
(Parameter.set 'Audio_Method 'Audio_Command)
(Parameter.set 'Audio_Command "sox -v 3 -t raw -sw -r $SR $FILE -c2 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp")
