Improved text-to-speech Features for Firefox:

  • Adjust speed and volume

    FoxVox Pro's custom toolbar allows you to set the words per minute spoken and the volume.
  • High Quality Voice Support

    Install the excellent voices by Cepstral which work on Windows and Linux. The Cepstral voices work free in demo mode without limitations, but they will nag you to purchase them. They cost $29.99 to register.

    Please note that the mbrola voices included in the free version of FoxVox are unfortunately NOT included due to licensing restrictions by the Mbrola project. Instead the free espeak voices are included, but these are of lower quality. Therefore, it is recommended to install the high-quality commercial Cepstral voices. Demo use is unlimited and you can install as many as you like, but be aware that they will nag you to register.

  • Autospeak function for news sites and blogs

    FoxVox Pro can automatically filter out only the main text and begin speaking on sites where autospeak is supported. Currently the following sites are supported by autospeak: BBC News, Boing Boing Blog, Project Gutenberg free ebooks.

Linux users: The Windows version also includes a Linux version. Grab that unless your system uses Pulse Audio. Then try the Ubuntu version. Sound on Linux can be...tricky. Some patience may be required ;-)
