I have lately been very impressed at the enhanced presence real live
voices give to on-screen characters piloted by people. Today I was
playing Natural Selection & a friendly alien looked at me and said
"I like cookies." He was a dope, but a dope with a real presence,
because he was a dope with a real and nuanced voice.
Even the best TTS I've heard is just understandable. It doesn't
sound good. I can appreciate the technical coolness of getting voice
comms through a straw by compressing it along the broad-strokes
perceptual categories of phonemes, but it is a shortcut to TTS
without the dictionaries.
It would be easier to evaluate the quality of the output of such an
approach if I knew of any software which used it. But (and I'm
really sorry to pooh-pooh a cool idea) the speech in existing
products works great, is reasonable with bandwidth, and does the
job. And it is always possible to use pitch shifts and other effects
on a signal. It isn't even out of line for new computers to do in
software if need be. - online voice communication Ted L. Chen
