These voices are still used in most of our SaaS solutions, such as webReader and docReader. Until about 2019, all our high quality voices were made using a technology called Unit Selection Synthesis (USS).

The team closely monitors the recording process to check for consistency in pronunciation, accentuation, and style. A diverse script is used for the recordings, designed to contain all the sound patterns of the language in development. Once a voice talent has been selected, she or he works with our voice development team for several days or weeks, depending on the type of voice, or the voice technology, we want to use. To create our speech personas, we select and record professional voice talents. Our commitment to providing outstanding TTS solutions is made possible by our uncompromising production process, designed to guarantee the quality levels that have earned ReadSpeaker TTS the trust of customers from across countries and markets. The enthusiastic feedback we receive from our customers confirms that we deliver the very best TTS solutions for successful online, offline, embedded, and server-based applications around the world. In fact, expert third party industry observers rate the US English ReadSpeaker TTS voice as being the most accurate on the market. Where you do save time though is HeroVoice TTS’s ability to batch process your script files.At ReadSpeaker, we have a passion for developing high-quality TTS voices. Unfortunately, I’m not aware of a mass import into Storyline. Select the voice you want – these are the same as you’ll find in Storyline today including Neural voices (which aren’t currently available in Storyline)Īfter the files are created, you will then need to re-insert them, one at a time.Encode your files with HeroVoice TTS – apply a global setting for speed and even comma duration so your files are consistent.Download HeroVoice TTS from the Microsoft Windows Store (fully functioning 15-day free trial).Save your scripts as separate files (MS-Word or Text).Get an Amazon Polly account (yes, there is some cost involved but doesn’t seem that prohibitive) ( ).Instead of using Storyline, you would go to the source that Storyline uses, Amazon Polly voices. Although not quite 100% automatic, I have a solution that may just work for your needs.
