Text To Speech "vocal" Melodies

Does anyone know how/where I can find a program that can to text-to-speech in a melody? Thanks!

Hey mate,
quick question- what software are you runnin?

Dunno about you, but some of my stuff comes with 'em loaded on the program.
Heck, what are you wanting to add to your songs (I could roll 'em for you and email you the wavs/mp3s). Later on!

DV.

PS. Get Magix coz it
has text-to-speech.

Not sure of any programs out there, sure you could google a free beta or whatever. I use FL Studio 8 XXL Producers Edition and it has a text to speech plugin within the software itself. What do you use ? J DOT ~ 2006

Dance or Techno ejay is one of the best for text to speech.

I think the easiest way is to grab a mic, record what you want to say and then distort the hell out of what you recorded. Experimentation is key, when you lack something, improvise. Good luck.

There are actually a few ways:
the one was already mentioned; grab a mike, record ur vocal and use a vocoder - with a bit knowhow u'll get great results...
another way is to cut the single words an to pitch them to the key u want them to sound or to get the melodyne plugin and use it for doing that; would be much easier...
but u also could use thisone (use the preset "singing girl") http://www.groovekitten.co.uk/#/talkany/4508182908 and autotune / gsnap (freeware).

thanks to Max S for the link.... you just saved me like hours and hours of tweaking ttv clips.... mad props dude!

Sure ;) I'm glad that I was able to help

Since the keywords here are "text to speech" and "melody" there is an instrument that was made exactly for this purpose. It is called VOCALOID distributed by Zero-G.

This is the best and ONLY tool where you can create very natural sounding vocals with text. It is not a trypical "text to speech" as this tool is a full featured synth of its own with the emphasis on vocals.

It is not a free tool but if you ever want to do some quick projects, their demo provides full functionality for sometime. Check their demo mp3s so you get an idea on the capability.
