You can also use it to install more cmu voices.

I am relatively new to linux, and I was trying to use the nitech hts voices with festival 2.1. I read on previous threads that there was a patch out for debian. However, when I am compiling the files, I get an error that the variable pulse_supported is not declared in the scope. I was looking over the .diff files, and it is in the file pulseaudiosupport.diff.
(EDIT: So i emailed the people who made the patch, and you need to compile speech-tools prior to compiling the festival patch. The git repo is git://anonscm.debian.org/tts/speech-tools.git . They have since updated the festival patch to reflect this dependency.)
Here are the commands I ran to build:
Code:$ mkdir whatever $ cd whatever $ git clone git://anonscm.debian.org/tts/festival.git $ tar cvf festival_2.1~release.orig.tar festival $ gzip festival_2.1~release.orig.tar $ cd festival $ debuild
Here is the error message I am getting:

Used calrama's pre-compiled voice files from post at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...#post11347639; downloaded tarball, un-tar'd, sudo mv'd to /usr/share/festival/voices/us. Comes right up, sounds good.
Hello If some are interested, there is a easy way to make the nitech hts voices with festival 2.1.
After some research I found that a patch has been added to the release of festival 2.1 at least in festival_2.1~release-6 (that the one iam using), but for the nitech hts voices with festival 2.1~release-6, you have to modify a fle in each subdirectory of the voice file : for exemple for the voice "nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts" you have to edit the file /usr/share/festival/voices/us/nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts/festvox/nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts.scm (if your voice are in /usr/share/festival/voices/us as describe in a tutorial).
In this file you have to replace :
the line
(require 'hts)
with:
(require 'hts21compat)
and the line:
(Parameter.set 'Synth_Method 'HTS)
must be replaced with:
(Parameter.set 'Synth_Method 'HTS21)
For more detail look at : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=589614 message Message #20
I work for me on rasbian package, but it should work as well on unbuntu.
Hope this can help someone
i think this was a great guide and i plan on using it to hopefully read me books
Hi,
Ubuntu with 'L' plates here.
I've found a voice I like at Festival : http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/fe...orevoices.html
The voice I am interested in using is the Christine HTS 2011 English RP female.
I cannot figure out which version of Festival I require to use this voice.
Refering to this page, where I am interested in the TTS server : https://github.com/InformationIntegr...speech-service
It says that there is only one HTS voice that works with Festival 2.1 - is this still the case ? If so which voice is that please ?
And finally has anyone else got that server I linked to up and running okay ?
Many thanks !
I was working through this tutorial & got almost everything working, but cannot get text2wave working.
$ text2wave -mode singing america1.xml -o america1.wav
SIOD ERROR: wrong type of argument to get_c_val
This is the festival example file. I did the install exactly as MonkeeSage showed.
Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?
