System.Speech.Synthesis 如何将语音从 en-US 更改为 en-GB？

Question

我在网上到处都看过。我找到了如何改变声音的性别（synthesizer.SelectVoiceByHints（VoiceGender.Male）和声音的年龄，但我不知道如何改变声音的文化（又名添加英国口音).

另一个可行的选择是寻找另一个语音合成器。但是，当我尝试将它实现到我的程序中时，语音合成器将无法工作。

非常感谢您的帮助！

Answer 1

两周前，我开发了法语和英语的语音合成器工具。我按照以下步骤安装了更多语音，并通过调用 SelectVoiceByHints 方法配置了不同的语音。

Tools: Windows 7, Visual Studio 2013

您可以如下设置文化信息，

SpeechSynthesizer _synthesizer = new SpeechSynthesizer();
_synthesizer.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Female, VoiceAge.Adult, 0, CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-FR")); // For French
// en-US for English(US)

安装更多语音的步骤

WARNING: This involves manual edits to your registry. Do at your own risk.

Step 1 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install the Speech Platform v11
a) go here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27225
b) click "Download"
c) select the "x64_SpeechPlatformRuntime\SpeechPlatformRuntime.msi"
d) run the installer (duh :P)

Step 2: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get the alternate voices
a) go here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27224
b) click "Download"
c) select the voice files you want. They are the ones that have "TTS" in the file name. 
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-CA_Heather
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-GB_Hazel
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-IN_Heera
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-US_Helen
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-US_ZiraPro
    MSSpeech_TTS_en-AU_Hayley
d) run the installers for each (duh :P)

Step 3: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extract the registry tokens
a) Open Regedit
b) Under - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech Server\v11.0\Voices - right click the "Tokens" folder and export. Save this file to your desktop as voices1.reg so it will be easy to find later.
c) Under - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Speech Server\v11.0\Voices - right click "Tokens" and again export it, again to the desktop. Call it voices2.reg.

Step 4: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit the voices1/2 files
a) open Voices1.reg in Notepad.
b) press "cntrl + H"
c) enter \Speech Server\v11.0\ into the "Find What" field
d) enter \Speech\ into the "Replace With" field
e) click "Replace All"
f) Save File
g) Repeat a-f with the Voices2.reg file

Step 5: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Merge the new Registry files into your registry
a) double click to "run" both Voices1.reg and Voices2.reg
b) Click "Yes" when it prompts

您现在应该可以访问 Voice Attack 和 Windows TTS 选项菜单中的新声音。此过程也可能适用于其他语音包。

希望这能提供一些思路。

Answer 2

在查看了 SpeechSynthesizer 的文档后，我发现了一个类型为 VoiceInfo 的 Voice。在VoiceInfo中，还有一个属性叫做Culture。我猜你应该设置属性.

像这样：

var culture = new CultureInfo("en-gb");
var voice = new VoiceInfo();
voice.Culture = culture;
yourSpeechSynthesizer.voice = voice;
