Those well versed with Australian accents are welcome to check out the latest tuning effort at https://eurpod.com/en_au_tuning.zip - this includes a much more improved pack that solves the 3 phonemes missing from the version initially there. This was part of the SpeechPlayer work in 2016, so whoever tuned these phonemes now gets to have their work live on.
@Tamasg Are you possibly going to do English Ireland, English South Africa, English Scotland and others? Just going off of some of the ones Vocalizer supports.
@mckensie @Tamasg I have a lot of suggestions like this to be honest, especially for dravidian languages, but considering that there are not many contributors, it would be extremely hard. We need possibly two testers for each english flavour or a fundamental hand-tuned phonemes that speechbox can read.
@kaveinthran @Tamasg Speech box might be able to handle ESpeak's scottish ENglish phonemes. Since ESpeak does have English Scotland. I was going to also say if you could get phonemes from Fiona, the vocalizer voice, but that might prove impossible because I doubt you can train vocalizer phonemes but well, good idea for an experiment
@mckensie @kaveinthran @Tamasg These things are literally hand crafted. Vocalizer is separate. Do you know how the phonemes and stuff work Mckenzie? It's all documented. If you want all these languages, take the time to learn how the super complax but worth the playing the phoneme editor is or even handcrafting your own json file by literal hand. That one takes a few hours to get right, oops? When ya have time, ya use it if you're me.
@danestange @mckensie @Tamasg Do you have some resources to learn all this?
@kaveinthran @mckensie @Tamasg Sure, I asked tamas about it over voice. I then later will let codex make its own language. AI is a gift for this stuff too, because it can read the MD file tamas put on the github about the phonemes and stuffly. I'm quite sure there's a phoneme guide there? If not, oops? Codex is pretty good at figuring them out though. My curious question is, can we explain these sliders and thingthe in the app and addon so new users aren't overwelmed? Also, half the sliders in the mobile app are broken.
@danestange @kaveinthran @mckensie lol. Or you could feed the 100 KB tuning.MD file to an AI and see how it does with it? ha ha. Everything is always accurately updated at https://github.com/tgeczy/TGSpeechBox/blob/master/Tuning.md
