Hi Chuck, you need to tune the voice mapping in your /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/espeak-generic.conf. This is done by the AddVoice directive. There is a bunch of such directives in the default configuration file, so you may just turn the first of them from: AddVoice "en" "male1" "en" to: AddVoice "en" "male1" "en-r" See http://www.freebsoft.org/doc/speechd/speech-dispatcher_10.html#SEC27 for more details. Your GenericExecuteSynth should look like: "echo \"$DATA\" | espeak -w /tmp/espeak.wav -v $VOICE -s $RATE -a $VOLUME -p $PITCH --stdin && aplay /tmp/espeak.wav" Best regards, Tomas.
