Bellow is included a description of how to test it easily. Hello Hynek, I have /etc/festival.scm but not festival.conf. Is that the file to use? Unfortunately the example you sent isn't working here, I may be doing something wrong though. > (set-pitch-range 200) SIOD ERROR: unbound variable : set-pitch-range Where can I find clear documentation on festival? I've installed the festival-doc package in debian and looked through the manual which starts at /usr/share/doc/festival/html/festival_toc.html. It seems very complicated and I get the idea I'll have to learn the scheme language just to customize my tts. That's not very appealing. Any help or advice is appreciated. By the way, any idea when festival 2.0 will be out? It's coming up on two years since 1.95 beta was released and nothing new. There's not even an experimental debian package for it that I can find.
