Azure

Using Microsoft's Azure Text to Speech service allows you to use more advanced features and higher quality voices, so I currently recommend it over Google Cloud's TTS.

Steps:

  1. Create an Azure 'subscription' (basically just an account). Doing so is free, despite the name: Sign Up Page
  2. Create a Speech resource in the Azure portal.
  3. Get the resource key and region. After your Speech resource is deployed, select "Go to Resource" to view and manage keys.
    • The resource region and API key will go into the cloud_service_settings.ini config file
    • For more information about Cognitive Services resources, see Get the keys for your resource.
