Best Text to Speech Software

Hume AI has introduced Octave (Omni-capable Text and Voice Engine), a groundbreaking text-to-speech system that leverages large language model technology to understand and interpret the context of words, enabling it to generate speech with appropriate emotions, rhythm, and cadence, unlike traditional TTS models that merely read text, Octave acts akin to a human actor, delivering lines with nuanced expression based on the content. Users can create diverse AI voices by providing descriptive prompts, such as "a sarcastic medieval peasant," allowing for tailored voice generation that aligns with specific character traits or scenarios. Additionally, Octave offers the flexibility to modify the emotional delivery and speaking style through natural language instructions, enabling commands like "sound more enthusiastic" or "whisper fearfully" to fine-tune the output.
