cool project
now another approach: you could produce all the wav-s in-browser. see my (100% open source) mvp at http://lalo.li/ http://lalo.li/ - yeah, you would need to do a lot of tuning/optimization of the speech-synthesizer to get a decent voice, but it would be possible.
think in the long term it would be a much more scaleable approach ... there are a lot of words out there .... than storing wav-s in the browser.
- SchizoDuckie 14y agoLalo.li is awesome, but unfortunately, you're using WebWorkers and TypedArrays, that's too high-tech for tablets. Also, this would require loading a waveform on a tablet from a data uri, which is also not supported, according to my tests on either iOS or Android with Crome :( My original prototype (that worked) was to store the wave files as a base64 encoded data URI into the database, but that's been rendered obsolete by this. Now we'll have to rely on pure wave files. Nothing that we cannot overcome, but it would have made the whole concept even more portable.
