You should probably edit the title - some amount of puffery is reasonable when showcasing one's own work but if you're so wide of the mark, the only feedback you'll get is about how your representations are inaccurate. Which is what's happening.

The title has been edited (I think by a yc moderator) which I think is a good move.

I think both are pretty good, but to my ears the UnrealSpeech ones all have very sharp, grating "s" sounds. The AWS voice is much smoother in this regard. Is this something that can be configured to a degree or would you have to post-process it with an de-esser? Because I can't imagine listing to those voices for anything longer than the example text.

Yup, trying to fix this

I like the character of the voices, especially Male B. Sounds a little like Brokaw, maybe.

But yeah sometimes I'd have to regenerate before I got non-glitchy audio. Still though, very cool.
