There are a couple of ways to use Balabolka’s free text to speech software: you can either copy and paste text into the program, or you can open a number of supported file formats (including DOC, PDF, and HTML) in the program directly. In terms of output, you can use SAPI 4 complete with eight voices to choose from, SAPI 5 with two, or the Microsoft Speech Platform.

This free text to speech software can also save narrations as audio files in a range of formats including MP3 and WAV. For lengthy documents, you can create bookmarks to make it easy to jump back to a specific location and there are excellent tools on hand to help you to customise the pronunciation of words.

With all these features to make life easier when reading text on a screen isn’t an option, Balabolka is the best free text to speech software around.
