People with ataxia can now create your own unique synthetic voice that sounds like you!

I do not have trouble with voice but what about actual speech? For dyslectic people there is text to speech but for me who still want to debate but cannot be understood, there seems to be nothing.

๐Ÿค” Copied from the link..either of these might be more suitable for you

Voice Build

Voice Build is a synthetic replica of your own voice that can be used in your communication device. This is ideal for people whose ataxia is likely to impact their speech but who have not yet had any significant symptoms.

Voice Repair

This is for people who have already noticed considerable changes in their speech. For example, if you struggle articulating some words or sound more breathy than normal, Voice Repair can repair this damage in your synthetic voice.

Itโ€™s good technology and will definitely help a lot of people. Iโ€™m going to see if I can sound like Elvis Presley might be able to make a few bob in the NE clubs ๐Ÿ˜Š.

Take care my friend x
