[Freeswitch-users] Speech Phrases

[Michael Collins]

Brian,

Are you sure you want the "say" application? The reason I ask is that the
say app does the stitching together of the digits, time, money, etc. Unless
you've re-recorded all the digits, etc. then I wouldn't even mess with the
say app. You probably want the playback app and the phrase files.

First thing: do you have the FreeSWITCH book? (The first one, that is.) I
wrote up a really nice tutorial on using phrase macros near the end of
chapter six. If you don't have the book then SHAME ON YOU! ;) Seriously,
snag it, because it will make us feel like we didn't waste 8 months of our
lives writing it. :P

Now, if you did indeed use your own voice and you created digit prompts,
letters, etc. and you do want the say app then you have two choices:
replace the default sounds with your voice, or create an alternate say
language and conf/lang config files. You could literally copy
src/mod/say/en/* and make src/mod/say/en_bdf/* and then copy conf/lang/en/*
and make conf/lang/en_bdf/*. Of course you'll need to edit some files:
mod_say_en.c (near the end, change the only occurrence of "en" to "en_bdf")
and conf/lang/en_bdf/en.xml you'll need to modify the line with
sound-prefix= to point to your sound set.)

Have fun!
