Balabolka can save the synchronized text in external LRC files or in MP3 tags inside the audio files. Is Balabolka Safe Balabolka Portable for MAC + Windows Free Download uses various versions of Microsoft Speech API (SAPI); it allows to alter a voice’s parameters, including rate and pitch.
I'm currently using Microsoft Windows XP which comes bundled with the Microsoft Sam Voice.
I want to add more voices as Sam is not very good to work with.
Many dictionary software's that i use take the default Microsoft voice for pronouncing and demonstrating new words and sentences.
Are there any voices (ideally free, but no limitations can be paid too) available that will add-on directly to the default windows text to speech engine ?
Can I set one of those voices as a default instead of Sam? I don't need a text to speech reader software so i need only the voices, not bundled with any software.
Also please suggest voices which are natural.

Microsoft TTS for supports 2 other english voices, Mike and Mary, MSM files downloadable here and a slew of foreign language voices as well.
For convenience, I wrapped it in an MSI (drag and drop w/ VS.NET) downloadable here. The process for that is detailed here: http://blogs.msdn.com/robertbrown/archive/2005/04/21/410561.aspx.
