I'm sure i'm not the only one wondering about this. Where are some good programs (or even free voices) to use for TTS? I have listened to quite a few good ones on here (and some bad ones, as well). Does anyone know where this miracle program/voice is?

You're definately not the only one looking for a good one, I was just about to post the same question.

I recommend NaturalReader. The bugger is you have to buy & download all the voices seperately, but the payoff is some of them are actually quite pleasant to listen to.

SayVoice.com offers a funky reader program which does little, but bundles voices with the sale of their reader.

I purchased the SayVoice with 10 voices for $29.99. This is the same price as buying one voice alone from Cepstral, and $15 dollars less than one voice from AT&T.

The SayVoice voices lack some features of the more expensive brands, but they can do an acceptable job with creative misspellings.

Using the SayVoice voices with Balabolka program gives access to a "dictionary" or ".ini" file which can store some of those creative misspellings, so the text can be spelled the ordinary way and pronounced in the specified way.

The more advanced voices have expressions, like "laughter" and "sigh" which don't come with the bargain SayVoice voices.

Here you can listen to SayVoice samples:
