Does anyon know what happeend to the text-to-mp3 feature? Meaning when you used Accessibility > Spoken Content, you used to be able to right click on text and have it send it to iTunes in which it would creat an mp3 for you.
Most likely not, since they just brought them to iOS 16 and it's iPad counterpart, along with the rest of the Macintalk family of voices that were missing since iOS 10.
The "Junior" voice was used in the Cartoon Network show "Whatever happened to Robot Jones?".

yayyyy
"When I grow up I'm going to be a scientist" is the most adorable thing i've heard

My first introduction to these was my dad's PowerMac G4 using the "announce the time on the hour" feature with the "Bells" voice. Good memories.
Oh wow
hahaha i still do that with my computers
A few of the voices even date back to MacinTalk 3.0 in 1993. Sadly, none of the MacinTalk 2.0 or earlier voices are still around.
Sad stands for is secretly a dinosaur
I sure like being inside this fancy computer.
These voices are now available on iPhone, including the novelty voices, starting with iOS 16 and it's iPad counterpart, iPadOS 16.
Gosh, I remember playing with these with some variant of System 7 back in the early to
mid 90s when I was around 10 years old
Same!
What a fun nostalgia trip. Thanks for sharing these! 👍
I really love these kind of videos
The Whisper voice should be reworked to say by default "Weird. Layer, 01", because it is the voice of Lain's episode titles.
I remember the Bad News voice was used in WALL-E if I remember correctly
Bad news is just Ralph singing. Ralph's pitch and inflection can be changed which is what they used for Auto's voice with some extra editing tools.
The Fred and Victoria voices became available in iOS in 2016 with the release of iOS 10.
Alex was ported over in iOS 8, and in iOS 16, they’ve added all the legacy voices, including the novelty voices to iOS.

Sadly not all voices support this feature, due to the API it relies on being exclusive to the Classic Macintalk engine and it's Vocalizer counterpart.
you can use the “say” command in terminal to do something like this
Is it possible to somehow use the Alex voice on Windows?
I don’t think so.
where can I download more voices for Apple speech - NOT AI
But we are in 2022 but I don't know if Apple will remove the novelty voices
Most likely not, since they just brought them to iOS 16 and it's iPad counterpart, along with the rest of the Macintalk family of voices that were missing since iOS 10.
Classic
The pitches are different, your wrong
i would like to hear cardi b to voice a mac

Apple has a lot more improved voices now. Those novelty voices are creepy and annoying.
Apple should update the voice quality. :(
