Notes

Bad news

Since the first of July 2022, the list of voices and the API as a whole has been very much limited!

But there is also good news

They returned back some male voices and added new languages, as well as made support for emotional styles. Despite the fact that styles appeared in JSON, you still won't be able to use them, SSML does not perceive them. SSML is very limited here, so there is no point in supporting it.

Using

Example

import asyncio
from msspeech import MSSpeech


async def main():
	mss = MSSpeech()
	print("Geting voices...")
	voices = await mss.get_voices_list()
	print("searching Russian voice...")
	for voice in voices:
		if voice["Locale"] == "ru-RU":
			print("Russian voice found:", voice["FriendlyName"])
			await mss.set_voice(voice["Name"])


	print("*" * 10)
	filename = "audio.mp3"
	# with open("s.txt", encoding="UTF8") as f: text:str = f.read()
	text = "Или написать текст здесь"
	print("waiting...")
	await mss.set_rate(1)
	await mss.set_pitch(0)
	await mss.set_volume(2)
	await mss.synthesize(text.strip(), filename)
	print("*"*10)
	print("SUCCESS! OK!")
	print("*"*10)

if __name__ == "__main__":
	loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
	loop.run_until_complete(main())

The maximum text length is approximately 31,000 characters.
