Hi I got alarmpi working grate and its very useful thank you. I have but one request I have to use pico2wave because I don't trust amazon as far as i can throw them. Anyways the pico2wave speech syntheses has to much base and it sounds distorted, Festival was another option but sounds terrible compare to espeak and I would like a male sounding voice compare to pico. is there a way I can use espeak tts engine instead of pico? I thank you for your time and if this was already done im sry to post it back up. I just did not find anything on how to change it to espeak online.
