Anyone know of any good text to speech programs/sites that could generate free to use audio? AT&T has a site, but they say you can't use the output of it for anything useful.
eSpeak: http://ompldr.org/vNWowZw
espeak "Well it is so-so you see" -w espeak.wav && sox espeak.wav espeak.ogg
Festival: http://ompldr.org/vNWowag
echo "Well it is so-so you see" | text2wave -o festival.wav && sox festival.wav festival.ogg
There are different voices and changing pitch gives some amount of flexibility.
Hope this helps :) What are your plans for speech synthesis?
Have a look at this:

Not sure if it is good though.
