[PD] pd & text->speech

[ydegoyon at free.fr]

hi,

the best text2speech software for linux
is undoubtedly festival . ..
then you can call it from PD with the shell
object.. no need to make an external in my opinion
except if you want to start a whole set of objects
where you could have formant generators, syllabi generators, ...
but that's a lot of work.

cheers,

yves/
