What is TTS?

The Text-to-Speech (TTS) module allows BotOfTheSpecter to read messages aloud in your stream. You can customize which voice is used, and the TTS will play through your audio overlay. This is perfect for announcements, alerts, and enhancing viewer engagement.

Setting Up TTS

Navigate to the TTS Settings section in the BotOfTheSpecter dashboard
Choose your preferred voice from the available options below
Set up your audio overlay to hear TTS output (see OBS Audio Monitoring)
Test your setup with a sample message

Note: All TTS audio is played through your configured audio overlay. Make sure you have the correct overlay URL in your OBS browser source and audio monitoring enabled.

Troubleshooting TTS

No audio output: Verify that your audio overlay is correctly configured in OBS and that audio monitoring is enabled
Wrong voice playing: Check that you've selected the correct voice in the TTS settings on the dashboard
Audio too quiet or too loud: Adjust the volume slider on the audio overlay source in OBS
TTS not responding: Ensure the TTS module is enabled on the dashboard and the bot has proper permissions
