TTS with Pre-Recorded Audio: Removing Silence

In my introductory blog, I have described that it would be cool to remove the silence from the recorded samples. If we look at one of the recordings we can see that they start and end with some silence: I have created a SilenceRemovalConverter which does exactly this. The first Read more…

TTS with Pre-Recorded Audio: Preparing the Audio Files

I the last Blog I introduced you to my new Simple TTS Arduino Library which is available on Github. I used the Text-to-Speech (TTS) functionality of Google Translate to generate the mp3 files, which was quite tedious to do manually. Then I executed xxd to generate a .h file from Read more…

TTS with Pre-Recorded Audio: Building a Talking Clock

Last year I was digging into Arduino Based TTS Solutions and came to the conclusion that the available engines will not provide any quality audio and therefore recommended to consider an approach which is based on recorded audio samples. Today I took the opportunity to create the new arduino-simple-tts project Read more…

Using the SAM TTS Engine with the Audiokit

I decided to use my SAM TTS Library with the AI Thinker Audio Kit. Unfortunately I found quite some bugs in my library that I needed to correct first, but now it is working as expected. Here is the Arduino Sketch #include “sam_arduino.h” #include “AudioTools.h” #include “AudioLibs/AudioKit.h” AudioKitStream kit; SAM Read more…

Using the AI Thinker Audio Kit Buttons

As you might know from my last posts I am currently extending my Arduino Audio Tools library to support the AI Thinker Audio Kit which is based on the ES8388 audio chip. . Originally I was of the opinion that the program logic for reading of the GPIO pins and Read more…

Using the FLITE TTS Engine with the AI Thinker Audio Kit

As you might know from my last posts I am currently extending my Arduino Audio Tools library to support the AI Thinker Audio Kit which is based on the ES8388 audio chip. . I thought it might be helpful to have a ‘Text to Speech’ example for the Audio Kit. Read more…

Text To Speach in Arduino – Final Conclusions

In my last couple of Blogs I was comparing the following Text To Speach (TTS) libraries which are available on Arduino: SAM Software Automatic Mouth TTS Text-to-Speech Library for Arduino Flite Festival lite I was hoping to find some TinyML based implementations, but so far without success: I put this Read more…

Text To Speach in Arduino using Flite

In my last Blogs I looked at SAM and Arduino/TTS. I was putting high hopes in CMU Flite: CMU Flite (festival-lite) is a small, fast run-time open source text to speech synthesis engine developed at CMU and primarily designed for small embedded machines and/or large servers. Flite is designed as Read more…

Text To Speach in Arduino using TTS

In my last Blog I looked at SAM. Now it is time to look at jscrane/TTS. TTS is a popular Text-to-Speech Library for Arduino which is supporting many different Microcontroller Architectures. I was extending the project, so that I could receive the data as stream: My extended project can be Read more…

Text To Speach in Arduino using SAM

I started to look into the topic of Text to Speach Synthesis (TTS) on Microcontrollers with the final goal to compare different engines. Since I don’t want to be bothered to connect the Microcontroller to any output device, I decided to just render the result to a Webbrowser with an Read more…
