Sonify

Sonify is a simple text-to-speech engine built using Python. It uses the NLTK, NumPy and PyAudio libraries.

To get it running on a Linux machine, first do the following:

  • sudo apt-get install python-pip

If you're on a Mac, do this instead:

  • brew install python-pip

Once that's done, use the following commands to install the required Python libraries

  • sudo pip install nltk
  • sudo pip install numpy
  • sudo pip install pyaudio

To run the program, type "python phonemer.py [words_to_say]".

Note that this program isn't yet complete, and is in a highly-prototype state.
