Well, Aaron, what is this @user computer? I tried pasting in your command user@computer:~$ . ~/.local/pipx/venvs/piper-tts/bin/activate but it says "command not found" I am in TCSH. Is user computer just a substitute for an actual /home/chime in this case? I suppose, more importantly, can we use Piper with Speakup? Thanks in advance Chime
Yes, "user@computer:~$" is just my prompt. Try using this command:~/.local/pipx/venvs/piper-tts/bin/python -m piper.download_voices en_US-arctic-medium
It looks like Speakup is compatible with Speech-Dispatcher, and you can configure Speech-Dispatcher to use piper (I am currently using piper as the default voice in speech-dispatcher, so I can help with that).
Thanks, -Aaron
