The project is a revised version of the Pink Trombone speech synthesizer originally developed by Neil Thapen in 2017. The original source code was modularized and converted to TypeScript.
Forked from pink-trombone-mod, the voicebox tries to make usage more friendly.
Pink Trombone uses two-dimensional digital waveguide synthesis to synthesize human speech sounds.
