espeakup vs speechd-up and speech dispatcher

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Bill,
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, and Voxin, but the IBM voice sounds like Microsoft 
Sam, which you probably know is worse than eSpeak.  Do you think that 
updating my pulseaudio driver will fix this?

If you plan to use espeak, and have no interest in other voices, then
espeakup is almost certainly the better choice.  I use speechd-up with
speech-dispatcher patched with a new pulseaudio driver, and I think
it's great, but thats because I use the voxin ibmtt voice.
