RE: [Asterisk-Users] Cepstral voices
I have successfully used Cepstral voices with asterisk. I have had better luck with integrating in by invoking Cepstral through at the command line (rather than using the Festival command from within asterisk), then just use the outputted file from your asterisk script. I have all of this automated so that it occurs as a result of actions defined in my extensions.conf file. Cepstral offers a fully functional download for you to test your architecture - and I was able to get everything running before I purchased the voice. The downloaded version has a clause at the end saying something about demo from Cepstral. Please clarify your question if you are pursuing a specific implementation path, and I'll do my best to help. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bruce Yount Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 9:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Cepstral voices Was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for getting the linux version of cepstral voices working with Asterisk.
