So usually I have to create a
custom module based on the generic module.
It's another way of connecting to external synths. It's not the
recommended way
Which is?
The documented way: a module specific to the synth, which knows how to
drive it in a more controlled way than just executing a command.

I haven't seen a module specific for piper-tts yet. You are saying there
is one? And it should be installed in the /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules
directory?
I did a search and don't see it. Do I need to enable another repository?
