[Emacspeak] Re: What speech servers is everyone using



The voxin project features both outloud (2.x) and vocalizer. Outloud relies on older Intel byte code and won't run on the ARM-based raspberry pi. There does appear to be an ARMv7 version of vocalizer though so that's promising.
I've personally only ever used espeak on a raspberry pi so I'd like to hear from anyone using vocalizer with it successfully.

Have a look at voxin on the oralux.org site. While it does cost money,
it is very little. I use it for outloud on Linux, but I think it may
have support for the Raspberry pi. It also has some newer vocalizer
voices (though it doesn't have emacspeak support for these yet).
