@debby @thorstenvoice I hadn't encountered Thorsten Voice previously (is it purely a German language voice?) - Does it work as a synthesizer for the NVDA screen reader? The site mentions it is "AI-Powered", is that on-device or cloud? And if cloud, what is the performance like (for say, arrowing through information where users expect responsiveness?) Feel free to reply here, or email to [email protected] (it can be hard to fit everything in one toot here!)

@NVAccess @debby Thorsten-Voice is my personal german only voice contribution working offline (no cloud).
But the tts software i used for training is "piper tts" which offers multiple voices in multiple languages (all locally on device, even raspberry pi) and according to their github readme it is integrated in "NVDA", but i do not have personal experience with it, yet.

@thorstenvoice @debby Ah yes I've seen a few users mention Piper. I haven't tried it myself, but it's great that you can do things like make new voices with it!
