Tae Kim TTS audio - mistamark - 2009-06-05

I've had a search on the forum and I can't find it, but I'm sure that someone once posted a link to download the Tae Kim TTS audio files. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!!

There another upload or mirror for this? Searched as well but there doesn't seem to be anything obvious in search.

There is on my HDD.. but it will have wait until I come back from Asia (July at the earliest), unless someone else has a copy. I'm disappointed; I was under the impression 2shared.com was indefinite-length hosting.

I would be interested in this too, so if anyone has it please post.

I'm in the middle of extending the Shadowing Audio app I wrote to do this for any sheets/text files that you download (eg: the ones from Google Docs).
I'll have the app and the audio up here by next week at the latest.

Any chance anyone can still post that audio?

I'm the one that originally posted it, but I can't find it on my HDD anymore Sad

I do have the code that generated it though:

Quote:#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import codecs
from comtypes.client import CreateObject

stream = CreateObject("SAPI.SpFileStream")
tts = CreateObject("SAPI.SpVoice")
format = CreateObject("SAPI.SpAudioFormat")
voices = tts.GetVoices()
for i in range(len(voices)):
if voices[i].GetDescription() == u'VW Misaki':
tts.Voice = voices[i]
break

from comtypes.gen import SpeechLib

file = codecs.open("tae_kim.tsv", "r", "utf-8")

i = 0
kanji = None
line = file.readline()
line = line.replace("\n", "")
line = line.replace("\r", "")
while line != "":
line = file.readline()
line = line.replace("\n", "")
line = line.replace("\r", "")
if len(line) == 0:
break

fields = line.split("\t",6)
i = i + 1
filename = u"Tae Kim - Basic Grammar_%s.wav" % unicode(i).zfill(3)

format.type = 34
stream.Format = format
stream.Open(filename, SpeechLib.SSFMCreateForWrite)
tts.AudioOutputStream = stream
tts.Speak(fields[1], 0)
stream.Close()

print "".join([filename,"... done!"])

del tts
del stream

# End of File

Maybe someone else here can help out? I don't have that computer with the Misaki voice around anymore.

I'd be happy to get that audio too.
