Introduction

We have been working in text-to-speech conversion for Spanish since 1980. You can have a look at our history page to get further details on our text-to-speech evolution.
We are working in both formant-based and concatenative synthesizers.

We participate in COST-258, dedicated to speech synthesis: COST 258.

Our text-to-speech DLL is working in a commercial CD-ROM called QuickMagic, featuring a magician. You can check it at: QuickMagic.

Formant-based synthesis

Our Group actually created the first version of the Spanish DECTalk synthesizer in 1984, and since then have been improving its quality till the high quality we have achieved in the present version of the system.

Work under development
