I set ESpeak to the language Oromo, and just typed a row of 1s, to the point it reads them all just as digits. And it just happens that it fits perfectly to a 3 / 4 beat.
You know what? We can make a remix of this thing and the Estonian one. I don't know how you manage to discover such phrases and then perfectly synchronize them with the metronome's beats but they're so funny.
The quality is a bit low, I just recorded this in Elten. So if you want to do it yourself, 194 BPM at speech rate 40. I just notice it when speech synths read something rhythmical and then I mess around which BPM fits.
Okay, that two of them are pretty funny.
That first one that you used for the e-speak for the numbers, that metronome actually comes
from a Casio keyboard.
I knew it because I'm playing Casio keyboard and it has the exact same metronome for each
of their keyboards.
So yep.
Oh, ladies and gentlemen, we need your support with new, improved technology.
Nobody wants that talk with eloquence and keynote gold on them as text-to-speech.
We will all come to a halt with an unattractive screech.
Nobody wants that talk doing nothing in the house, and they seem to want the comports for a modem and a mouse.
I'm plonked on the sideboard, on the sideboard I shall sit, and ladies and gentlemen, he's giving me the sh...
Oh dear, oh dear, my time is up.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, just drop the money on top of the speech box or donate it to the Royal Blind Society or Digital Equipment Corporation or whatever.
The heck they're called.
See you later, alligator.
Goodbye!
How do you reboot your computing machine? You put your feet through the computer screen!
Oh, so that casio keyboard sounded similar, if not the same, as the roland synth that Windows uses for their microsoft GS wavetable. Sorry for being off topic but I just had to comment on George's post there.
Sorry, sorry, I can't come to the phone.
Leave your name and number after you hear the tone.
And the message.
You forgot about the message.
Ah, yes, the message.
Of course.
Thank you.
Please leave your name and number or you won't get very far.
Cause I'm only a machine and don't know who the hell you are.
