Text-to-Speech (TTS) Simple (by HMCorp)

This repository provides a simple implementation of a Text-to-Speech (TTS) system. It allows users to generate speech audio files (e.g., .wav) from text input. The project is designed to be lightweight and easy to use.

Features

• Convert text input into .wav audio files.
• Cross-platform support for macOS and Windows.
• Easy setup and usage.

Requirements

• Python 3.8 or higher
• pip (Python package manager)

Installation

Using pip

1. Install Python (if not already installed):

   • On macOS:

     brew install python
     

   • On Windows: Download and install Python from python.org. Ensure you check the box to add Python to your PATH during installation.

2. Install the package:

   pip install tts-simple
   

3. Install FFmpeg for .wav file generation:

   • On macOS:

     brew install ffmpeg
     

   • On Windows: Download and install FFmpeg from FFmpeg.org. Add the FFmpeg binary to your system PATH.

Usage

1. Run the script:

   python tts_simple.py --text "Hello, world!" --output output.wav
   

   Replace "Hello, world!" with your desired text and output.wav with your desired output file name.

2. Example:

   python tts_simple.py --text "This is a test." --output test.wav
   

Dependencies

The project uses the following Python libraries:

• gTTS (Google Text-to-Speech)
• pydub (for audio processing)
• ffmpeg (for .wav file generation)

Install these dependencies via:

pip install gTTS pydub

Notes

• Ensure FFmpeg is correctly installed and added to your PATH for .wav file generation.
• The script is designed for educational purposes and may require additional tuning for production use.
