Info

Fonix DECtalk software Welcome to DECtalk DECtalk converts ASCII text into speech without special or proprietary hardware. The most important features of DECtalk text-to-speech (TTS) technology are described below. High-Quality Speech Represents the latest in speech synthesis technology. Requires only a standard sound card for audio output. Provides three different voices. Programmatically controls voice pitch, rate of speech, and word/phrase emphasis. Word Pronunciation Accuracy Accurately reads ASCII text from a variety of sources, including electronic mail and word processors. Letter, Word, and Clause Modes Provides normal clause buffering for natural speech. Speaks letters, words, phrases, clauses, paragraphs, and even whole documents. Speaks single characters immediately (doesn't have to buffer an entire clause). Can terminate speech immediately (buffered text doesn't have to complete processing). Pronunciation Heuristics Recognizes and pronounces non-word sequences, including sequences with uppercase initials (e.g., FBI and AAA) and sequences without vowels (e.g., CBS and NBC). 1
