voices

 

I just discovered this site where you can download a number of different voices from your written text. the downloads come as wav files, but they can quickly be converted into mp3 files with a simple converter program. ( I used Switch on the Mac ). Anyway, It's a quick and dirty way to add speech to your poi files. (for the new users) Remember to change the name to match that of your poi.

I just tried this and it's great. Much easier than recording my own voice and much nicer to listen to.
