I'm glad to see this. I hope they can get the TTS to sound more conversational and less like a newscaster...that being said...free is nice.

  The quality is also miles better than the last open source TTS I've heard that wasn't just an Amazon SDK. I'll take newscaster-voice over robot-from-the-early-00's.

  The sample links are impressive to me. I don't follow the space closely but they sound conversational. https://soundcloud.com/user-565970875/pocket-article-wavernn-and-tacotron2 https://soundcloud.com/user-565970875/pocket-article-wavernn...

    Usually conversation is less crisp. That sounds great, but more like an audiobook or NPR. It's probably going to be hard to sound conversational with only one voice speaking though.

      Yes, the woman's voice definitely has that NPR way of finishing sentences.
