THANKS for help with "Flite", hoping to install additional v

Post by BeeTea »

Hi! I adore everything about this site and have done memories of building a "brain machine" years ago with a friend called Mitch Altman from the Make world. I have recently installed Flite on my Big Sur Mac mini after cloning this repo: https://github.com/tobiastoft/flite-osx
I have also downloaded the additional voices which are sitting in their own folder near the clone. I'm hoping to install them but am not a very skilled programmer. I see a reference to these voices in 2 different scripts within this directory clone. I'm guessing I will need to place the downloads in the proper location and then re-install re-make? I'm using Xcode command line tools to play voices in Terminal which I'm loving. :)

Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

Mahalo,
BeeTea

I have found an interesting reference to empowering further voices here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/637 ... repository
But when I search through the scripts which I believe are referenced during the config and make process, I don't see a single script which lists all of the working/default voices together. This would seem to be out of my league :) tbh, I didn't even have Xcode installed before this journey. I'm a sound/composer mainly.
