Writing a movie? Need a mechanical-sounding voice for your robot? Want to make an episode of your comedy web animation Stylistic Suck? Voice actors are so difficult. What if there was something easier? A Synthetic Voice Actor (or a synthespian) is a synthetic voice program that voices a character. It's not used a lot, especially when union rules would make that difficult. It's usually used for extremely robotic voices, or a No Celebrities Were Harmed version of Stephen Hawking. It more commonly springs up in Abridged Series and machinima, partly to get extra voices, and partly because of Rule of Funny. When used against human actors, it tends to make the speaker seem inhuman — in more serious works, it's used for threatening robotic characters, usually. Compare the computer voice on the Enterprise (real person) to AUTO (not a real person). Popular application programs include Speechelo, Talkia, Typecast.ai and MicMonster, the latter two of which are browser-based and free to use on a limited basis. This trope may not apply to programs like MorphVOX Pro, which are merely voice changers. Compare Machine Monotone, Virtual Celebrity, Auto-Tune. Subtrope of Computer Voice due to how it is painfully obvious to the listener that the line was voiced by a machine. |

In "Big Bird Brings Death to Sesame Street," he uses Microsoft Sam pitched up to make Ernie (whose dialogue was simply described by the narrator in the original) say, "I'm going over to visit Betty Lou, because she has a contagious fatal illness, with diarrhea forever." It makes Big Bird's "Ohhh" reaction more convincing, though. | |

Impossible Mission on the Commodore 64: "Another visitor? Stay awhile. Stay FOREVER!" note The strange thing about this is that the trope is actually zig-zagged: The speech is actually provided by a TSI S14001A, but it was converted to PCM digital audio and played back using the SID PSG instead of being produced on-the-fly using the PSG. The story behind the reason is a little funny- game programmer Dennis Caswell went to a startup called Electronic Speech Systems and requested for digitized recordings of a "50-ish English Guy". They gave him recordings done using said synthesizer chip and he was none the wiser (when interviewed about the game later, Caswell was still under the impression that the voice belonged to a human[2]), and went on to include the samples in the game. Activision’s Ghostbusters (1984) tie in game for several platforms also used the same speech synthesis method from the same company. |

Respeecher was reused in Obi-Wan Kenobi for Darth Vader due to James Earl Jones, who was 91 years old during production, being too old to perform the character's menacing voice anymore note Jones' Role Reprises as Vader in Star Wars Rebels and Rogue One sounded noticeably aged, and those instances were nearly a decade before production on Obi-Wan began. Even in Jones' non-Star Wars roles, such as reprising Mufasa in The Lion King (2019), Jones' voice was much shakier and he was unable to emote like he used to.. It helps that in-universe, his voice is a synthetic bass provided by his suit because his actual vocal cords have been scorched by the flames of Mustafar. | |

The episode title announcer in Serial Experiments Lain is a Macintosh program named PlainTalk (often falsely called "Whisperer" because of its "Whisper" voice mode). As of 2024, you can still access it on present day macOS's built-in TTS functions by setting the voice on "Whisper" and having it say "Weird. Layer, 01". | |

All the cameos of Hatsune Miku in the third season of Dropkick on My Devil have the NT version of her voice synthesizer voicing her lines, unlike the appearance of her character in Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion, in which Saki Fujita herself voices her by using Vocaloid-esque voice effects.

Supermarioglitchy4's Super Mario 64 Bloopers: The 2016 video "Can Ganondorf Come Out To Play?" introduces major character Bob, who is voiced by the WillFromAfar text-to-speech voice. 2020 introduces Hal Monitor, a computer-headed security guard who uses a Speakonia voice, Rob the Scarecrow, who uses a generic male voice, and Whimpu, who uses the Takumi_male text-to-speech engine. Most of the cast of SMG4's spinoff series Guards N' Retards uses a text-to-speech voice. The two main characters, Chris and Swagmaster, use Microsoft Mike and Sam, respectively. There was a recurring narrator who used a British text-to-speech voice. |

This only becomes apparent in the mod Portal: Prelude, whose main gimmick is that the test supervisors were human, rather than an AI. However, the voices were done in a text-to-speech program because the creators were French and weren't very fluent in spoken English. They couldn't find voice actors in the timeframe in which they wanted to develop the game. This becomes especially awkward towards the end of the game after GLaDOS is turned on for the first time, and she uses her sound files from the main Portal game, mixed with synthesized voices. So we have a robot that sounds more human than the humans do, and uses two personalities at once. For those of you keeping track: Portal's supervisors are robots voiced by humans imitating robots imitating humans, while Prelude's supervisors are humans voiced by robots imitating humans. | |

AI Sponge uses AI-generated text-to-speech voices for the SpongeBob SquarePants characters, trained from the characters' actual dialogue from the show. This results in multiple oddities, such as Squidward having the volume of his voice turned way up (thus earning him the moniker "Loudward") and any given character randomly mumbling nonsensical or even eldritch noises at the end of their sentences (made out to be the character having a stroke) when the AI voice glitches out. | |

Love, Death & Robots' "Three Robots" has 11-45-G, voiced by the text-to-speech program Kendra. Compared to most users of the trope who are voiced this way to seem cold and inhuman, 11-45-G's Machine Monotone is used to provide contrast with a legitimate Genki Girl Jerk with a Heart of Gold personality, making everything she says quite hilarious. | |

Tomodachi Life has this for every character, and lets you customize the voice using various sliders. The difficulty of getting the text-to-speech working in languages other than Japanese was responsible for slowing down the game's western release. The first game was not localized at all due to the DS not being able to properly run an English text-to-speech system. | |

The Plogue virtual instrument plugin chipspeech contains a bank of recordings of various ancient speech synthesisers, which can be played via a keyboard like a musical instrument. Each voice is assigned a VOCALOID-esque character: Dandy 704, a rogueish Steampunk cyborg voiced by the 1961 'singing' computer IBM 704. Otto Mozer, a cyborg Mad Scientist voiced by the 1975 chip the TSI S14001A (the soundchip used to provide the voice of Evil Otto in the game Berzerk as well as voices from Ghostbusters (1984) and Impossible Mission.). The name is a homage to both Evil Otto and the designer of the chip, Professor Forrest S. Mozer[1]. Lady Parsec, a Silk Hiding Steel robot queen/despot voiced by the TI-99/4A plug-in speech synthesizer module for the game Parsec. Lady Parsec HD, based on a mixture of Lady Parsec's master audio files and new phonemes provided by a similar-sounding voice actress, which is suspected to be the wife of the head developer, David Viens. Bert Gotrax, a foul-mouthed robot boy voiced by the Votrax SC-01 chip used in QBert, and in the Mockingboard sound and speech cards for the Apple II. Dee Klatt, a GenderBender cyborg voiced by DECTalk (Steven Hawking's voice unit). Spencer AL2, an Energy Being voiced by the SP0256-AL2 chip used in a number of 80s kit speech synthesisers including the Intellivision's Intellivoice attachment, the Magnavox Odyssey voice attachment, and the Cheetah Sweet Talker for the ZX Spectrum. Terminal 99, a mysterious computer that may have absorbed its programmer's souls and is worshipped by them as a god, voiced by a TI 99/4A plugin synth module. VOSIM, a robot companion scrapped for being The Unintelligible who tries to make friends with others, voiced by a standard DAC. Notably, his voice is more synth like than the others. Dr. CiderTalk, a cybernetic tech CEO with questionable ethics, voiced by MacinTalk 1.0. |

The merchant in Crypt Of The Necrodancer doesn't "speak", per se, but he "sings" along to the background music by way of a synth voice track layered over the rest of the soundtrack, which can be used to locate his store (and its useful goods). Just be careful if the singing seems off-key. | |

The Software Automatic Mouth, or SAM, by Don't Ask Software, provides a CPU-driven speech synthesizer to any machine that has a PSG chip. The Apple II version supported several PSG-based sound cards made for the Apple II (and was a pack-in software for several cards), and the C64 version drives the SID chip directly. The Atari 8-bit version used the POKEY chip (another PSG chip on Atari 8-bit computers that can also be found in several arcade machines), but had other limitations due to the design of the system (the ANTIC chip had to be disabled, as do interrupts- this means that the screen has to be blanked while generating speech). The PC and base Apple II version can even try to generate speech from the internal beeper by treating it as a rudimentary PSG. MacInTalk was a rebranded version of this software that Steve Jobs personally commissioned Don't Ask Software to produce for the Mac (which went on to voice AUTO in WALL•E, among many other roles). Microsoft Voice/Speech (of which Microsoft Sam is a part of) is also undoubtedly its spiritual successor if not direct spinoff or even direct continuation of the line. | |

Animal Crossing uses a simple voice synthesizer to speak each letter of the text, very quickly. Characters even add the proper inflection if a sentence ends with a question mark. It's fairly unintelligible if you try to listen to it, but in the original Japanese it works a lot better, in fact, almost perfectly, since the Japanese language uses a series of fixed syllable-based characters compared to western languages, where phonemes have to be combined to form words. | |

One of the writers has suggested that he "deleted his emotions and personality" to make room for more data, though (like many an "emotionless" character), he certainly seems to have both, if understated. | |

The STAFF Bots of Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach use computer generated voices. Since these are the most common type of animatronic found in the Pizzaplex it's meant to give the impression of them being mass produced and not being an animatronic designed for a specific purpose, like the game's four main animatronics. | |

They planned to do this to make the Voice of God in The Prince of Egypt, but after discovering a lot of really good demonic voices they just used Val Kilmer for both Moses and God. The voices of the other actors are used quietly to provide a sort of echo. | |

Deliberately used badly in Time Fcuk—the main character's voice is barely even comprehensible, and definitely doesn't sound human. It's not quite certain why this is—perhaps the Rule of Scary, or a deliberate attempt to "anonymize" him? | |

Doctor Who: Averted in all instances. The BBC originally considered doing this for the Daleks, but with 1963 technology, they could have done only 45 seconds of dialogue this way, so they used a human voices filtered through a ring modulator. It's actually pretty easy to duplicate the Dalek voices. Record your voice with Dalek speech-patterns, over-amplify it to add clipping distortions (this step is the one people often forget or don't know about, including, occasionally, the actual BBC effects people), then run the results through a ring modulator plugin using 20-40Hz for the frequency of the modulation. The Daleks, also, do not have mechanical voices, only voices that sound mechanical. A truly mechanical voice would probably be one-note-just-like-this, but Daleks have a cadence to their voices, and they also go "EX-TER-MI-NATE! EX-TER-MI-NAAAAATE!" with each intonation rising in pitch and volume. They look like tin cans, but they have some powerful emotion inside them. The initial creepy sing-song voice of the Cybermen in "The Tenth Planet" was created by (human) voice actors imitating the glitchy speech cadences of the first ever 'singing' computer, IBM 704. The BBC did the Cyberman voices for most of the 1960s by having a human actor use an electrolarynx (an artificial throat-vibrating device for people who had lost their larynx to cancer or injury — they're rarely heard nowadays, but a prominent fictional user is Ned in South Park). The 2009 revival version of the Cybermen simply had an actor's voice run through a ring modulator with a different setting to what was used for the Daleks, with the results mimicking how they sounded in the 1968 serial "The Invasion". The Mechonoids in "The Chase" have very peculiar voices created by cutting up a tape of a human voice actor until it is just phonemes, a sort of analog Vocaloid. They are nearly incomprehensible. |

The voice of Byte from Tron 2.0 is actually a voice of MacinTALK. It wasn't the first video game tie-in for TRON to use this. The standing arcade game and Tron Solar Sailer for the Intellivision (using the Intellovoice attachment) also used synthetic voice sound clips in-game. Given the franchise in question, it was a rather appropriate use! |

Q*bert uses a Votrax SC-01 voice synthesizer chipnote Also used in their pinball machines such as Black Hole to supply the voices of the various characters. Unfortunately, the chip used couldn't really produce coherent phrases, so the designers decided to go the other direction and have the characters speak a Starfish Language. Word of God is that the programmer in charge of programming the speech was too frustrated with the chip's API due to how hard it was to get it to say what he wanted properly, and simply decided to give up and have Q*Bert speak gibberish. | |

The Portal series is an aversion of this, since its Artificial Intelligences are all voiced by humans (though the voices of GLaDOS and the turrets are heavily edited in post-production). GLaDOS was originally going to be voiced by a text-to-speech program, but Valve wanted her to go through a Villainous Breakdown where she became progressively more emotional, which computer programs couldn't do. The results of running the text of GLaDOS's lines through a text-to-speech program were actually used to coach actress Ellen McLain with regard to giving GLaDOS her distinctive voice in Portal. However, fan-made mods can't afford Ellen's voice (though, once people did think of asking her), hence, they use voice synthesizing programs for their GLaDOSes and AIs (dependent on the story for the mod). However, Ellen does make exceptions and has provided her service in the voice of GLaDOS for a much smaller fee for fan projects in the past. This only becomes apparent in the mod Portal: Prelude, whose main gimmick is that the test supervisors were human, rather than an AI. However, the voices were done in a text-to-speech program because the creators were French and weren't very fluent in spoken English. They couldn't find voice actors in the timeframe in which they wanted to develop the game. This becomes especially awkward towards the end of the game after GLaDOS is turned on for the first time, and she uses her sound files from the main Portal game, mixed with synthesized voices. So we have a robot that sounds more human than the humans do, and uses two personalities at once. For those of you keeping track: Portal's supervisors are robots voiced by humans imitating robots imitating humans, while Prelude's supervisors are humans voiced by robots imitating humans. |
