Interactive Demo of SVOX - German Monolingual Speech Syntesis

You can listen how the SVOX text-to-speech system reads your own text.

Enter some German text you like to be synthesized:
 
You can type umlauts either as `ä', `ö', `ü' or as `ae', `oe', `ue' and sharp-s as `ß' or `ss'. According to the official Swiss usage of German, `ß' is always replaced by `ss'. All your `ß' will automatically be converted to `ss' by SVOX. Upper and lower case characters are always treated identically.
Submit the text to the SVOX server:

You can choose here from a selection of German example sentences.

SVOX is commercially available from SVOX AG.

If you encounter any problems using this interactive demonstration page, please send a short description of what went wrong, indicating which WWW-browser and which helper application for sound output you use.
