lkuza2 / java-speech-api

The J.A.R.V.I.S. Speech API is designed to be simple and efficient, using the speech engines created by Google to provide functionality for parts of the API. Essentially, it is an API written in Java, including a recognizer, synthesizer, and a microphone capture utility. The project uses Google services for the synthesizer and recognizer. While this requires an Internet connection, it provides a complete, modern, and fully functional speech API in Java.

Do you have the required FlacEncoder dependency in your build path? If not this error will be generated.

Thanks that helped!!! Program is working correctly...however i have one doubt in synthesizer part...how do I change voice of mp3 output from female to male voice???? any help will be appreciated Thanking in advance :)

Skylion007 commented 9 years ago

Unfortunately, Google updated their English-GB voice to a female model so there is no longer an English male, supported voice. You could try messing around with parameters to change the voice. Alternatively, SynthesizerV2 is experimental but does have a pitch parameter to make the voice deeper or higher pitched.
