For example, you can make the voice sound more robotic, or like a giant ogre, or an evil demon.
Want more voices? You can download the generated audio and then use voicechanger.io to add effects to the voice. If you don't like the externally-downloaded voice, you can use a recording app on your device to record the "system" or "internal" sound while you're playing the generated voice audio. You can download the audio as a file, but note that the downloaded voices may be different to your browser's voices because they are downloaded from an external text-to-speech server. I had a lot of fun as a kid making Microsoft Sam say all sorts of silly things, and so I figured I'd make this so that the younger generations can enjoy the same thing.This web app allows you to generate voice audio from text - no login needed, and it's completely free! It uses your browser's built-in voice synthesis technology, and so the voices will differ depending on the browser that you're using. If you're old enough, you might remember "Microsoft Sam" - the robotic sounding voice which could read things out in Microsoft Word, and help you navigate Windows. eSpeak was one such attempt, and happily, it now (more than 20 years later) allows us to produce this fun robotic text to speech app. This things are very hard to write into a program because they are much more subtle than the pitch/harmonic modulations that make up our syllable sounds.Īs such, early attempts at machine voice generation sounded very monotone and robotic. In natural speech, there are many subtle inflections, pauses, and amplitude modulations that are used to convey emotion and properly give emphasis to the right parts of a sentence. All thanks goes to for porting the software to JavaScript so it works in your browser! The software behind this app is a JavaScript version of the eSpeak library which was originally written in C. You can download the speech by clicking the link that will appear under the "Speak" button. Just wait for it to load (it may take a minute or so as it's a 2mb piece of software) then type your text in the box and click "Speak". Need more voices?

Feel free to use the generated audio for any of your projects (commercial or personal).
