I want to know whether is there any way I can save the input to the android speaker.I mean save the current voice being played by the speaker.This I need because android TTS speech synthesizer doesn't work.So I cannot save the audio,I can just play it. SpeechSynthesizer class provides access to the functionality of an installed speech synthesis engine (voice). Step 1: Open a blank app and add a Button and A TextBox either from the toolbox or by copying the following XAML code into your grid.

Download Speech Synthesis Data For Android

Narrator’s Voice is another best text to speech app that every Android users would love to have. The great thing about the Narrator’s Voice is its interface which looks clean and fantastic. Not just that, but the app also allows users to add various sound effects to the speech synthesis.

public class TextToSpeech
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech

Synthesizes speech from text for immediate playback or to create a sound file.

A TextToSpeech instance can only be used to synthesize text once it has completed its initialization. Implement the TextToSpeech.OnInitListener to be notified of the completion of the initialization.
When you are done using the TextToSpeech instance, call the shutdown() method to release the native resources used by the TextToSpeech engine.

Query the engine about the set of available languages.

Returns
`Set<Locale>`

getDefaultEngine

Gets the package name of the default speech synthesis engine.

Returns
`String`	Package name of the TTS engine that the user has chosen as their default.

getDefaultLanguage

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, use getDefaultVoice().getLocale() (getDefaultVoice())

Returns a Locale instance describing the language currently being used as the default Text-to-speech language. The locale object returned by this method is NOT a valid one. It has identical form to the one in getLanguage(). Please refer to getLanguage() for more information.

Returns
`Locale`	language, country (if any) and variant (if any) used by the client stored in a Locale instance, or `null` on error.

Returns a Voice instance that's the default voice for the default Text-to-speech language.

Returns
`Voice`	The default voice instance for the default language, or `null` if not set or on error.

getEngines

Gets a list of all installed TTS engines.

Returns
`List<TextToSpeech.EngineInfo>`	A list of engine info objects. The list can be empty, but never `null`.

getFeatures

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, please use voices. In order to query features of the voice, call getVoices() to retrieve the list of available voices and Voice#getFeatures() to retrieve the set of features.

Queries the engine for the set of features it supports for a given locale. Features can either be framework defined, e.g. TextToSpeech.Engine#KEY_FEATURE_NETWORK_SYNTHESIS or engine specific. Engine specific keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. These keys can be used as parameters to )'>TextToSpeech#speak(String, int, java.util.HashMap) and ,%20java.lang.String)'>TextToSpeech#synthesizeToFile(String, java.util.HashMap, String). Features values are strings and their values must meet restrictions described in their documentation.

Parameters
`locale`	`Locale`: The locale to query features for.

Returns
`Set<String>`	Set instance. May return `null` on error.

getLanguage

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, please use getVoice().getLocale() (getVoice()).

Returns a Locale instance describing the language currently being used for synthesis requests sent to the TextToSpeech engine. In Android 4.2 and before (API <= 17) this function returns the language that is currently being used by the TTS engine. That is the last language set by this or any other client by a TextToSpeech#setLanguage call to the same engine. In Android versions after 4.2 this function returns the language that is currently being used for the synthesis requests sent from this client. That is the last language set by a TextToSpeech#setLanguage call on this instance. If a voice is set (by setVoice(android.speech.tts.Voice)), getLanguage will return the language of the currently set voice. Please note that the Locale object returned by this method is NOT a valid Locale object. Its language field contains a three-letter ISO 639-2/T code (where a proper Locale would use a two-letter ISO 639-1 code), and the country field contains a three-letter ISO 3166 country code (where a proper Locale would use a two-letter ISO 3166-1 code).

Returns
`Locale`	language, country (if any) and variant (if any) used by the client stored in a Locale instance, or `null` on error.

getMaxSpeechInputLength

Returns
`Set<Voice>`

See also:

isLanguageAvailable

Checks if the specified language as represented by the Locale is available and supported.

Parameters
`loc`	`Locale`: The Locale describing the language to be used.

isSpeaking

Checks whether the TTS engine is busy speaking. Note that a speech item is considered complete once it's audio data has been sent to the audio mixer, or written to a file. There might be a finite lag between this point, and when the audio hardware completes playback.

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if the TTS engine is speaking.

playEarcon

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, replaced by playEarcon(java.lang.String, int, android.os.Bundle, java.lang.String).

Plays the earcon using the specified queueing mode and parameters. The earcon must already have been added with addEarcon(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) or addEarcon(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, int). This method is asynchronous, i.e. the method just adds the request to the queue of TTS requests and then returns. The synthesis might not have finished (or even started!) at the time when this method returns. In order to reliably detect errors during synthesis, we recommend setting an utterance progress listener (see setOnUtteranceProgressListener(UtteranceProgressListener)) and using the Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID parameter.

Parameters
`earcon`	`String`: The earcon that should be played
`queueMode`	`int`: `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`params`	`HashMap`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_STREAM`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID`. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the playEarcon operation.

playEarcon

Parameters
`earcon`	`String`: The earcon that should be played
`queueMode`	`int`: `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`params`	`Bundle`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_STREAM`, Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.
`utteranceId`	`String`

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the playEarcon operation.

playSilence

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, replaced by playSilentUtterance(long, int, java.lang.String).

Plays silence for the specified amount of time using the specified queue mode. This method is asynchronous, i.e. the method just adds the request to the queue of TTS requests and then returns. The synthesis might not have finished (or even started!) at the time when this method returns. In order to reliably detect errors during synthesis, we recommend setting an utterance progress listener (see setOnUtteranceProgressListener(UtteranceProgressListener)) and using the Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID parameter.

Parameters
`durationInMs`	`long`: The duration of the silence.
`queueMode`	`int`: `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`params`	`HashMap`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID`. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the playSilence operation.

playSilentUtterance

Parameters
`durationInMs`	`long`: The duration of the silence.
`queueMode`	`int`: `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`utteranceId`	`String`: An unique identifier for this request.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the playSilentUtterance operation.

Parameters
`audioAttributes`	`AudioAttributes`: Valid AudioAttributes instance.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

setEngineByPackageName

This method was deprecated in API level 15.
This doesn't inform callers when the TTS engine has been initialized. TextToSpeech(android.content.Context, android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech.OnInitListener, java.lang.String) can be used with the appropriate engine name. Also, there is no guarantee that the engine specified will be loaded. If it isn't installed or disabled, the user / system wide defaults will apply.

Sets the TTS engine to use.

Parameters
`enginePackageName`	`String`: The package name for the synthesis engine (e.g. 'com.svox.pico')

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

Sets the text-to-speech language. The TTS engine will try to use the closest match to the specified language as represented by the Locale, but there is no guarantee that the exact same Locale will be used. Use isLanguageAvailable(java.util.Locale) to check the level of support before choosing the language to use for the next utterances. This method sets the current voice to the default one for the given Locale; getVoice() can be used to retrieve it.

Parameters
`loc`	`Locale`: The locale describing the language to be used.

Returns
`int`	Code indicating the support status for the locale. See `LANG_AVAILABLE`, `LANG_COUNTRY_AVAILABLE`, `LANG_COUNTRY_VAR_AVAILABLE`, `LANG_MISSING_DATA` and `LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED`.

`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

setSpeechRate

Sets the speech rate. This has no effect on any pre-recorded speech.

Parameters
`speechRate`	`float`: Speech rate. `1.0` is the normal speech rate, lower values slow down the speech (`0.5` is half the normal speech rate), greater values accelerate it (`2.0` is twice the normal speech rate).

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

setVoice

Sets the text-to-speech voice.

Parameters
`voice`	`Voice`: One of objects returned by `getVoices()`.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

See also:

shutdown

Releases the resources used by the TextToSpeech engine. It is good practice for instance to call this method in the onDestroy() method of an Activity so the TextToSpeech engine can be cleanly stopped.

speak

Speaks the text using the specified queuing strategy and speech parameters, the text may be spanned with TtsSpans. This method is asynchronous, i.e. the method just adds the request to the queue of TTS requests and then returns. The synthesis might not have finished (or even started!) at the time when this method returns. In order to reliably detect errors during synthesis, we recommend setting an utterance progress listener (see setOnUtteranceProgressListener(UtteranceProgressListener)) and using the Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID parameter.

Parameters
`text`	`CharSequence`: The string of text to be spoken. No longer than `getMaxSpeechInputLength()` characters.
`queueMode`	`int`: The queuing strategy to use, `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`params`	`Bundle`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_STREAM`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_VOLUME`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_PAN`. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.
`utteranceId`	`String`: An unique identifier for this request.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the speak operation.

speak

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, replaced by speak(java.lang.CharSequence, int, android.os.Bundle, java.lang.String).

Speaks the string using the specified queuing strategy and speech parameters. This method is asynchronous, i.e. the method just adds the request to the queue of TTS requests and then returns. The synthesis might not have finished (or even started!) at the time when this method returns. In order to reliably detect errors during synthesis, we recommend setting an utterance progress listener (see setOnUtteranceProgressListener(UtteranceProgressListener)) and using the Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID parameter.

Parameters
`text`	`String`: The string of text to be spoken. No longer than `getMaxSpeechInputLength()` characters.
`queueMode`	`int`: The queuing strategy to use, `QUEUE_ADD` or `QUEUE_FLUSH`.
`params`	`HashMap`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_STREAM`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_VOLUME`, `Engine#KEY_PARAM_PAN`. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the speak operation.

stop

Interrupts the current utterance (whether played or rendered to file) and discards other utterances in the queue.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS`.

synthesizeToFile

Synthesizes the given text to a file using the specified parameters. This method is asynchronous, i.e. the method just adds the request to the queue of TTS requests and then returns. The synthesis might not have finished (or even started!) at the time when this method returns. In order to reliably detect errors during synthesis, we recommend setting an utterance progress listener (see setOnUtteranceProgressListener(UtteranceProgressListener)).

Parameters
`text`	`CharSequence`: The text that should be synthesized. No longer than `getMaxSpeechInputLength()` characters.
`params`	`Bundle`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.
`file`	`File`: File to write the generated audio data to.
`utteranceId`	`String`: An unique identifier for this request.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the synthesizeToFile operation.

synthesizeToFile

This method was deprecated in API level 21.
As of API level 21, replaced by synthesizeToFile(java.lang.CharSequence, android.os.Bundle, java.io.File, java.lang.String).

Parameters
`text`	`String`: The text that should be synthesized. No longer than `getMaxSpeechInputLength()` characters.
`params`	`HashMap`: Parameters for the request. Can be null. Supported parameter names: `Engine#KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID`. Engine specific parameters may be passed in but the parameter keys must be prefixed by the name of the engine they are intended for. For example the keys 'com.svox.pico_foo' and 'com.svox.pico:bar' will be passed to the engine named 'com.svox.pico' if it is being used.
`filename`	`String`: Absolute file filename to write the generated audio data to.It should be something like '/sdcard/myappsounds/mysound.wav'.

Returns
`int`	`ERROR` or `SUCCESS` of queuing the synthesizeToFile operation.
