Text to speech Male Female voice

Help

We build text to speech converter and its work perfectly, but we want voice selection like male and female. by default it takes male voice but we want female voice also. we try this vb.net code but it gives error like “voice gender is not declare”
synth.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Male)
synth.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Female)

Hi @abhay
do check the sample below i have attached to test female Voice
Voice_test.xaml (6.2 KB)

For Each  Item1 As System.Speech.Synthesis.InstalledVoice  In reader.GetInstalledVoices
		System.Windows.MessageBox.Show(Item1.VoiceInfo.Name)
		Console.WriteLine(Item1.VoiceInfo.Name)
		Next

the above loop is to check how many voice does the System is Configured of in my case i have the following

  1. Microsoft David Desktop:-Male
  2. Microsoft Zira Desktop:-Female

I could not prove it, I seem to have problems with the version of uipath I am using, which is Studio 2018.3.2 - 10/30/2018, since I already migrated all my projects, I do not want to go back to an earlier version. Will there be another way? @aman_sheik

Hi @Anusha_Makam

Can you please refer this https://go.uipath.com/question/voice-enabled-rpa-ai-70532#

For this you need to create a service account in GCP i.e., Good Cloud Platform. Here iam mentioning the link

Hope this helps!!

Hello @aman_sheik,

Thank you for the suggestion.
I have already tried that , but now i wanted to try other ways of doing the same. I have a python executable code and i dont understand how to send audio as an input to microphone. Is there any activity that integrates it to uipath to feed in voice input after my code is executed?

Thank you,
Anusha
