Somebody has a recommendation? It should have an option to export as audio (yes, the most important thing for me).
I've tested natural reader which sounds great but it seems if using the online voices it cannot be export as wav?

Waveosaurs VST Speek is exactly what you are looking for.

Aah, yes.. this is for this typical robotic voice. Not really what I need, but thanks!

You could try SayIt and Shitalker ... iirc the voices can be tuned to sound less robotic.

SayIt is nice but these things become annoying and hard to listen to when you're using them more than once.

I'd say: You. Gimme one good reason why not use one's own voice if it's *your* music. Ok, feed it through whatever distorts it when you feel embarassed, but chances are a tiny bit of soul remains. Unless you're making music for cleanrooms.

I don't know which platform you are on or what kind of effect you are after, but the built in text-to-speech-function in OSX is actually really really useful.

Otherwise - record your own voice and slap Bitspeek on it. Very very good.

The one included in Windows 8 is the one you often hear on youtube.

Ivona 2 speech synthesiser. it is non-musical program, but it produces vocals of outstanding quality. As long as you're not going to sing, go for it.

Ivona is amazing.. and the trial allows exporting of wav/mp3... thank you my friend @DJ Warmonger

Wow! AnalogX... haven't seen that name in years. Didn't realize he was still at it!

You could post process it eg melodyne

The welsh accent makes me smile

I'm note sure sometimes it comes on while I'm cleaning the keyboard so no idea what key combo it is.

Recommendation for Text to Speech?
