I want to create my own voice on Mathematica 12 and use it for this function

SpeechSynthesize["Hello"]

We can use theses voices on Mathematica

$VoiceStyles

SpeechSynthesize["Hello", First[$VoiceStyles]] // Normal

Somebody have an Idea how I can do it? Must have recorded my voice at first in using

AudioCapture[]

Thanks

    $\begingroup$ You could 1) record all the words you expect to speak and have Mathematica chop up and select audio to play, or 2) implement a rather complicated neural net (WaveNet, GANs?) or 3) use neural nets for audio style transfer of your voice's style onto computer voices. All are very difficult. You might be interested in this paper youtu.be/0sR1rU3gLzQ $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ There's SpeechSynthesisTools`Private`$MacAvailableVoices[] which suggests it might look up voices that are synthesized by your Mac. There's also $WinAvailableVoices for Windows (I suppose). Don't know much more. Have you tried asking Wolfram Support? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ If you install new voices for macOS (can be done in accessibility preferences), they will show up as available $VoiceStyles in Mathematica. I just checked that this works. There is a long list of styles you can choose from. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ As for creating your own style, I do not know how easy or difficult it is ... I would expect it is not simple. But it would not be a Mathematica-specific operation. If you can find out how to create a voice style and install it system-wide, then it will also be available for Mathematica. Thus I would search about how to do this. $\endgroup$
