[Freeswitch-users] How can I make more sounds that sound like Callie?

2009-09-02 Thread Nick Lemberger
I'm guessing she's a Cepstral voice, but can I ask what version, khz and 
settings the 8khz sounds are recorded with (I ask about the khz because perhaps 
they were pre-transcoded)?  I tried downloading 5.1 from Cepstral but they 
don't sound at all alike.  I'd like to replace a few prompts with words more 
accurate for my installation but I'm having trouble getting close to the 
default voice.

Taken from a similar recent posting:

Callie is one of the voices from GM Voices. She is definitely available
for custom work. Visit www.gmvoices.com for more info. Tell them that the
FreeSWITCH project sent you. :) MC

I suppose how close is close enough? In any case, Cepstral has several
female voices, so choose the one that you like best. FTR, we have GM record
at 48k and then we downsample for 32, 16, and 8.
