VST Speek lyrics?

[razordead]

Is there some way to feed lyrics to VST Speek via Automation? I like the sound it produces, but not always the phrasing. I figure I can get more control over phrasing by giving it a syllable at a time, but I'd like to avoid having an instrument for every syllable.

what vst is that?
If you have a link, it would help :)

Hi musikbear. VST Speek is here http://blog.wavosaur.com/text-to-speech-vst-vst-speek/

I think I've decided to work with Alter/Ego http://www.plogue.com/products/alterego for now & use FX to try to get the grittier/chippier sounds if I need them. Alter/Ego seems to give much better control of phrasing & makes it obvious where to put in many more vocals then VST Speek seems to allow.

razor, that look like a really interesting plugin
I have replaced the link. The one you gave, had a a lot of DOWNLOAD-NOW buttons, that is completely irrelevant, and will install unwanted software on peeps computers
This

is for VST-planet, and the actual download takes place on the makers site here:

Thanks for that. I tried Alter/Ego a few weeks ago and couldn't get it to run in LMMS at all. The latest version seems a lot better. The choir voice is rather nice. Time for some more playing about I think.

Wooah! Cool!
How the heck did I forget about this Vst? Lol!
Thanks for the links to Alter/Ego guys.

I also saw some Free Daisy Voice bank.

Can you post links?
Perhaps they should be added to 'resources' ?

Here you go musikbear and others.
Sorry I didn't post the link before, because, for some strange reason yesterday, I couldn't find it.

Oh, this is how her voice sounds.
This is Plogues soundcloud account.

It's 200mb.

This is how she sounds in English.

I must say.
I'm impressed by this software.
I'm going to install it and check it out.

Thanks Brandy!
So.. This will actually let lmms use lyrics..
What do you all think: Is this interesting enough for a new page in the wiki ..like 'Synthetic singing lyrics' or is this just another vst, that could be added to the vst-list? Opinions?
