But Facerig can absolutely do it, as one option that I've tested. Maybe an engineer or programmer can suggest something barebones that would suit streaming, I do not have a go-to version of this on Windows.

I think 'VST' is the magic word to research on, it's an old plugin standard for live audio processing and there are a lot of options and a million free filters to choose from. We actually want a lightweight app that just takes a selected Windows Audio Device as input and applies one or more VSTs of your choice to it and pipes it to a selected Windows Audio Out device, real or actual, with the shortest delay possible and least overheads. We were discussing adding a realtime postprocessing effect to VA's text-to-speech output, for theatrical effects, such as octave shift, robot voice, and more advanced effects like a Granulator are feasible using freeware.Р”Р‡acerig is not actually the best solution, I just mentioned that it can do ie robot vocoder effect in realtime - as can some apps aimed at videochat or livestreaming, but if you're not using the furry 3d animated avatar then you're taxing your graphics card for no reason when it's already busy - and they have some commercial licensing restrictions that could possibly affect you. Necro-posting because this has a core idea of wider interest.

It's too bad there's not some kind of limited time/function demo, if I could hear it in flight I'd know if it's what I want or not. After creating an account you will be able to convert any text to naturally sounding speech and use the audio files for any purpose, personal or commercial.

Now that I know I can tell but it's extremely well done. This service offers professional tool for converting text to synthetic speech with use of top quality Ivona voices. I didn't realize it was a TTS voice until someone pointed it out during a Discord chat. I bring this up as one of their newscaster is 'Robot Rachel'. They do a really fantastic job with it and, for me, it just adds on to the immersion. What's great about it is every so often they play a news segment and fake product ads. It's a streaming station that plays music provided by the community (that fits with Elite, no Country!). Not sure if you're familiar with Elite Dangerous and by extension Radio Sidewinder. I actually speed up the built in Windows female voice (forget the name) by 1, I feel like that slight speed increase goes a long way toward realism. While $45 isn't the bad at the same time I'm not sure it's worth $45 to make the dozen or so custom commands I've created sound a bit better. Thanks for confirming about SAPI 5 voices. I don't think that because I'm a man and would want a woman, I just think they objectively are better.

It also seems that female voices are far better than male. I definitely agree with you on the British voices, they real do sound the best.
