MBROLA Project
The aim of the MBROLA
project, initiated by the TCTS Lab of the
Faculté Polytechnique de Mons (Belgium),
is to obtain a set of speech synthesizers
for as many languages as possible, and
provide them free for non-commercial
applications.

- FreeTTS
FreeTTS is a speech
synthesis system written entirely in the
JavaTM programming language. It is based
upon Flite: a small run-time speech
synthesis engine developed at Carnegie
Mellon University. Flite is derived from
the Festival Speech Synthesis System from
the University of Edinburgh and the
FestVox project from Carnegie Mellon
University.
- The Festival Speech
Synthesis System
Festival offers a general framework for
building speech synthesis systems as well
as including examples of various modules.
As a whole it offers full text to speech
through a number APIs: from shell level,
though a Scheme command interpreter, as a
C++ library, from Java, and an Emacs
interface. Festival is multi-lingual
(currently English (British and
American), and Spanish) though English is
the most advanced.
- Flite: a small, fast run
time synthesis engine
Flite (festival-lite) is a small, fast
run-time synthesis engine developed at
CMU and primarily designed for small
embedded machines and/or large servers.
Flite is designed as an alternative
synthesis engine to Festival for voices
built using the FestVox suite of voice
building tools.
- festvox
The Festvox project aims to make the
building of new synthetic voices more
systemic and better documented, making it
possible for anyone to build a new voice.
- gnuspeech
Gnuspeech is an extensible,
text-to-speech package, based on
real-time, articulatory,
speech-synthesis-by-rules. That is, it
converts text strings into phonetic
descriptions, aided by a pronouncing
dictionary, letter-to-sound rules, rhythm
and intonation models; transforms the
phonetic descriptions into parameters for
a low-level articulatory synthesiser; and
uses these to drive an articulatory model
of the human vocal tract producing an
output suitable for the normal sound
output devices used by GNU/Linux.
- The Epos Speech
Synthesis System
Epos is a language independent
rule-driven Text-to-Speech (TTS) system
primarily designed to serve as a research
tool. Epos is (or tries to be)
independent of the language processed,
linguistic description method, and
computing environment.
- HMM-Based Speech
Synthesis System (HTS)
HTS version 1.1.1 comes with a small
run-time synthesis engine (less than 1 MB
including acoustic models), which can run
without the HTK library. The current
version does not include any text
analyzer but the Festival Speech
Synthesis System can be used as a text
analyzer. This distribution includes a
demo script using CMU ARCTIC US English
awb, which generates "voices"
for Festival.
