I've used this site quite a bit to crank out TTS stuff for things. Last one was an Ashley Simpson smack-up, IIRC ;) One tip: sometimes things don't 'translate' the way you think they will, unless you spell them phonetically.

I use it like this:
eg:

Code: Select all

say -o terminal.aiff "This is audio from the terminal"
This puts the output of the audio file into the root directory of your user account. Very usefull.

theres a free plug called lips for mac that does this - lets you pick one of secveral voices, you type hit play, usually you have to write phonetically - then hit export and theres a aiff - brilliant weee toy
