Hi all,
flite (a text to speech external) is good enough for a release. It includes:
- single binary without dependencies.
- 5 built-in voices
- can load .flitevox voice files (english only)
- read from a text file
- threaded functions for "synthesis" and "read file"
You can get it from Deken or at https://github.com/Lucarda/pd-flite/releases/tag/0.3.2
There are no mac M1 or Linux ARM builds but there shouldn't be a problem for those who want to compile (and upload to Deken).
:)
