There is no substitute. I've published my WhoIsIt-1.1.tar.gz tarball with some scripts to generate files from festival, for all the cou...

FYI, I found a workaround with this. Festival w/ A@H comes with 4 voices. Here's a snippet from the siteinit.scm file: ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_bdl_arctic_hts) (set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_slt_arctic_hts) ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_jmk_arctic_hts) ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_awb_arctic_hts) The default is to have the first line uncommented and the rest comm...

...ival to speak some text to callers. I'm having two problems with this. The first is with IAX calls (I've not tried others) the first few seconds of the speech is garbled.

(set! default_after_synth_hooks (list (lambda (utt) (utt.wave.rescale utt .5 t)))) Does anyone have any suggestions? -- Sample configs and more: http://www.fnords.org/~eric/asterisk/ BTEL Consulting +1-850-484-4535 x2111...
