Type

Prompt Segment item

Available from

Any level tab in the Prompt File Editor. For more information about the Prompt File Editor, see Using the Prompt File Editor.

Purpose

The TTS item renders text input as synthesized speech output. This can be valuable when it is impossible or impractical to use prerecorded audio files for prompts.

Behavior

The TTS item takes text entered into the TTS Text field and passes it to the TTS speech synthesis engine. The TTS engine then renders the text input into audible synthesized speech.

To control the pitch, rate, volume, and other aspects of the TTS rendering, use the SSML options. The SSML options include:

• Break

• Emphasis

• Prosody

• Say As

• Voice

Properties

• TTS Text - Enter in this field the text that you want rendered as synthesized speech.
