One of the scenes was simple and plausable, while the second was a definite stretch (i.e., not doable by today'sen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#596507Sat, 13 May 2006 00:37:28 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:596507RosynaUhm, the latter part wasn't a TTS engine at all. It was frequency/pitch matching engine dealie. He had him read a card full of consonant, vowel, and combination sounds. This audio was sent (I imagine digitally) to Luther, Luther's many computers compiled a modulation algorithm based on Tom Cruise's voice and sent the finished algorithm back to the chip inside his neck. This program just adjusted frequency and what-not. It did not actually have to do any Text To Speech. It turned the sound of one voice into the sound of another. No biggy. it's like how you can make Male speech sound like female speech in an audio program. <br> <br>However, the timing of each syllable for cruise and what's his face would have to be identical for this to be convincing.http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#609489Sun, 28 May 2006 23:06:51 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:609489Literal-Minded » Blog Archive » A Panphonic Poem for Mission: Impossible 3PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://literalminded.wordpress.com/2006/05/05/a-panphonic-poem-for-mission-impossible-3/">http://literalminded.wordpress.com/2006/05/05/a-panphonic-poem-for-mission-impossible-3/</a>http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#624207Fri, 09 Jun 2006 22:24:17 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:624207jaywaltmYes, you are right. I mingle my worlds of speech synthesis with text to speech. Technically, it was speech synthesis and not text to speech.http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#808234Mon, 09 Oct 2006 17:00:36 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:808234The Howdy Kid » Is my thesis Mission Impossible?<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.howdykid.com/blog/?p=860">http://www.howdykid.com/blog/?p=860</a></p> http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#9669143Sun, 31 May 2009 15:40:06 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9669143 Jay s blog on text to speech Now Defunct Text to Speech in Mission | Outdoor Ceiling Fans<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://outdoorceilingfansite.info/story.php?id=563">http://outdoorceilingfansite.info/story.php?id=563</a></p> http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#9669964Sun, 31 May 2009 18:15:17 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9669964 Jay s blog on text to speech Now Defunct Text to Speech in Mission | Outdoor Ceiling Fans<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://outdoorceilingfansite.info/story.php?id=18199">http://outdoorceilingfansite.info/story.php?id=18199</a></p> http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#9779174Fri, 19 Jun 2009 07:33:54 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9779174 Jay s blog on text to speech Now Defunct Text to Speech in Mission | Outdoor Decor<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://outdoordecoration.info/story.php?id=443">http://outdoordecoration.info/story.php?id=443</a></p> http://blogs.msdn.com/texttospeech/archive/2006/05/12/596477.aspx#9779717Fri, 19 Jun 2009 08:38:02 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9779717 Jay s blog on text to speech Now Defunct Text to Speech in Mission | home lighting<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://homelightingconcept.info/story.php?id=499">http://homelightingconcept.info/story.php?id=499</a></p>
