US English Female Text-to-speech (by Google)
Description from store

Updated February 2017: uses new speech engine, no separate download required.

This is a female US English text-to-speech (TTS) voice extension that runs in your browser using Native Client technology.
This extension does not do anything by itself. When installed, it provides an additional voice that talking apps and extensions can use.

This voice is a US English female voice, built by Google. The synthesis engine runs directly in your browser using Native Client technology - no network required. That means it's fast and responsive, suitable for accessibility applications.

I selected this voice with Read Aloud and it's not working (every other works). How do I fix it?
Yujin Boby
I was using it for years, but it stopped working 2 days ago. I am using Ubuntu 22.04. Anyone else have the problem?
Russell Foster
There's no UI way on the screen or by right click option to start this. So the engine might be there, but you can't get it going. The doco is poor too, so you can't find out how its meant to be used
Jim Ross
Didn't work
Matthew Kowal
Higher quality microphone or synthesis than the other voice but still lacking natural inflection and intonation
Paul Monforton
How to make this work?? Doesn't seem to do anything.

Good idea, But yes you need to get this going.. must have.

doesn't work.

Works Great if you prefer Windows 10 browser over chrome. Chrome already has it available for extensions like Checker plus for calendar and its cousin for Gmail, but now i was able to apply this and have the option available for windows. Tips hat at devs !
Johny Dadoa
It works. Nice. Thank you very much. FIY: I have festival and speech-dispatcher working. I don't know if they were needed.

installed this extension after downloading read aloud extension because they offered it as a fix for it pausing all the time. But this one also stops after each paragraph

The voice is okay, but every time I use it with the read aloud extension, she restarts when paused.

The whole thing just crashed this sucks

Finally found Talker: text-to-speech, many languages. More useful than that(English, US, Female).

For anyone wondering what this extension does, it is not an TTS application. It only provides a text-to-speech voice, which can be used by other TTS applications to synthesize speech. For example, if you use the excellent TTS app called "Read Aloud", after you install this Google extension, a new voice named "US English Female TTS (by Google)" will appear in the Read Aloud options. The cool thing is this voice will work even offline when you don't have internet.

这个只是Google提供的文本转语言引擎,无法单独使用,需要安装别的扩展来调用google的技术。 google的文本转语音采用了仿真技术,达到更逼真的效果。其它用户有好几个说使用的是 TTSReaderX In-Page.

ops!!! I got it, please care that after installation of this you will be able to access Text-to-speech's engine not directly but by means of other extensions such as TTSReaderX In-Page.
J. Robert Dubois
no functionality way to go Google!

Finally got it to work with TTSReaderX In-Page Text to Speech (appears as English, US, Female). Removed and reinstalled, refreshed page I was attempting to use TTS on.
