Maybe the Alison voice is better, but I've found Cepstral to be a bit
too mechanical. I'm using Ceptral Millie (since a UK accent is more
acceptable in Australia than an American one)
The best TTS engine I've /ever/ run in to was Nuance Realspeak (see
http://www.nuance.com/realspeak/) though I don't believe it's cheap -
last time I looked it was a couple of hundred dollars per channel. The
demo is back online after a long absence (though you do need to register
to use it)

Thanks everyone for the reply.
Till now we had simple IVR so we recorded it ourself.
Now I have a requirement where customer needs a customized message to be played
to customer. I am basically looking for some Text to Speech software that would
be cost effective (most probably a open source) and would convert Text to
Speech.
I tried Fetival, but the quality of the sound is not good. Can we improve the
sound quality of Festival somehow.
Cepstral with Allison is only $30.
I did a demo IVR for a potential client and it was hard to tell the TTS
bits from the human bits. If I took the time to learn Cepstral's markup
language I probably could have fooled myself :)
Thanks in advance,
Are there any tools like these for Dutch language Asterisk installs?...
