About
Microsoft Sam TTS Generator is an online interface for part of Microsoft Speech API 4.0 which was released in 1998.
Usage
Hope it's useful for you:) This online tool lets you generate a Microsoft Sam style voice (not the exact original) that you can play and download easily. Just wait for it to load (it may take a minute or so as it's a 2mb piece of software) then type your text in the box and click 'Speak'. Try SitePal's talking avatars with our free Text to Speech online demo. Our virtual characters read text aloud naturally in over 25 languages. Use our text to speach (txt 2 speech) tool to test speech voices.
- Select your voice. Note that BonziBUDDY voice is actually an 'Adult Male #2' with a specific pitch and speed.
- Select your pitch and speed. All voices have lower and upper pitch and speed limits.
- Enter your text and press 'Say it'. Wait for generated audio appear in audio player. It should be done nearly instantly, as the interface tries to generate audio at x255 real-time.
- To save generated audio, right click on audio player and press 'Save audio as...'

This tool synthesizes GLaDOS-like voice audio clips based on text (Text-To-Speech, TTS).
The voice generation will not function as intended without javascript activated, mainly because it's trying to be somewhat fancy. Sorry.
GLaDOS is the main antagonist in the Valve Software game Portal. See the Portal Wiki article on GLaDOS for more information about the character.
Generated voice samples:
A simple API is available, for use in home automation projects and similar. You can request a sample, which will return immediately if it exists, or hold for up to 5 minutes, waiting for the sample to be generated. You are free to retry the request until your sample is ready.
The following example saves the generated wave file on your machine for later use:curl -L --retry 30 --get --fail
--data-urlencode 'text=Hello World!'
-o 'hello_world.wav'
'generate'
Alternatively, you can pipe the output to a media player, such as 'aplay', to play it directly without saving the file:curl -L --retry 30 --get --fail
--data-urlencode 'text=Hello World!'
'generate' | aplay
The voice generation process is based on this GitHub project by Etienne Perot, which was modified for improved accuracy, adapted to a different TTS voice, and made compatible with the available infrastructure.
