Text-To-Speech WAV Sound Files For Free

HOW TO MAKE TEXT-TO-SPEECH FILES FOR FREE FOR NT7 ALERTS

Using a two-stage process, you can get text to speech (free) that works a treat. I've used it and the sound alerts work fine in NT7.

Firstly, go here:

http://www.fromtexttospeech.com/

Experiment with

- Select language

- Select voice (I've found the 'Heather' voice is very clear)

- Select speed

You end up downloading MP3s.

You need to convert these to WAV format, and this can be done, again free, here:

http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-wav

This certainly works. Sometimes the sites can take a few moments (or more) to do the 'recording'.

(I've copied this over from another thread.)

You can also use http://www.text2speech.org/ to output WAV files without the extra step of conversion, but the quality is not as crisp as http://www.fromtexttospeech.com/

Hello Severe,

This thread details converting text to speech and supplying .WAV files to be used with NinjaTrader. WAV files must be in PCM format to be used with NinjaTrader.

We look forward to being of further assistance.
