I am a DJ and would like to get my mac os x to record some text highlighted and read out through the universal access function. When i click option + s i am able to hear the text highlight from a mac almost robot like voice.
I wanted to types out some sentences and record it with the voices given by mac os x
I just heard what sounded like a telephone conversation between two men coming from my speakers on my 2008 MacBook Unibody... This is somewhat disturbing, can anyone offer an explanation?

I have tried Cepstral voices but you have to licence them which I don't want to pay for. Any voices for Mac that are free and as good as the Cepstral ones. There must be some?

In specific I wanted the voice of the computer in Portal. You know, that whole the cake is a lie thing.
I was wondering whether anyone out there knows how to turn the mac automated speech voices to an audio track that can be used in a video. By the automated speech I mean the ones where you can type in what you want it to say, you can choose a voice, (I think one is called alex), then right click and click start speaking. I want to use this as an audio track in a video.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor the second month in a row my company has grossly exceeded its bandwidth limit.The culprit is our Mac server automatically downloading ~15GB of updates in a given day of the month, most recently the 21 March. Every update is labeled "multi-lingual voices" (version 1.0, post date 16 March 2012), each update's size 200MB to 500MB. There is no reference/description regarding what these updates are, only a product id e.g. "041-4502 (Multi-Lingual Voices)"
The server update settings in Server Admin is set to "all new" updates. Automatically copied. Delete outdated software updates.
1. What are these multi-lingual voices updates, where and why are they used?
2. Can I restrict these updates from automatically downloading, whilst retaining the "all new", automatic copy, setting for the remainder of my other updates?
Server/Software details:
* Our Mac server (OS X server 10.6.8)
* Server Admin v10.6.5 (328.4)
