Description:

American English male speaker for festival, 8khz sample rate

This is a diphone database for festival that uses 8k samples so it takes up a minimum of disk space. Using this diphone database, festival also converts text to speech faster than with the 16k version. However, the sound quality is not as good. . The voice contained in this database is an American English male speaker. A different American English voice can be found in the festvox-kallpc8k package if you dislike this one.

Version: 1.4.0-6
