Generated voice samples:

A simple API is available, for use in home automation projects and similar. You can request a sample, which will return immediately if it exists, or hold for up to 5 minutes, waiting for the sample to be generated. You are free to retry the request until your sample is ready.

The following example saves the generated wave file on your machine for later use:
curl -L --retry 30 --get --fail
--data-urlencode 'text=Hello World!'
-o 'hello_world.wav'
'generate'

Alternatively, you can pipe the output to a media player, such as 'aplay', to play it directly without saving the file:
curl -L --retry 30 --get --fail
--data-urlencode 'text=Hello World!'
'generate' | aplay

The voice generation process is based on this GitHub project by Etienne Perot, which was modified for improved accuracy, adapted to a different TTS voice, and made compatible with the available infrastructure.
