It takes a list of phonemes as input, together with prosodic +information (duration of phonemes and a piecewise linear description +of pitch), and produces speech samples on 16 bits (linear), at the +sampling frequency of the diphone database. It is therefore NOT a +Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesizer. + +Mbrola is used in conjunction with a TTS synthesizer. This script +builds the standalone binary for use with a TTS such as espeak-ng, +included with Slackware. + +You will need mbrola in order to utilize the mbrola voices included +with espeak-ng. |
