PHP class, pvox : Festival text-to-speech client
University of Edinburgh’s Festival Speech Synthesis Systems is a free software multi-lingual speech synthesis workbench that runs on multiple-platforms offering black box text to speech, as well as an open architecture for research in speech synthesis. It designed as a component of large speech technology systems.
Since I had problems with clients included in Speech Tools ( part of Festival software ),
I wrote Pvox .
Pvox is a PHP 5 client for the Festival Speech Synthesis Systems. It connects to a festival server, sends commands and the string to process and receives a wave file. It could be used as a command line script or to play spoken audio on a browser.
