OutLoud Text Reader

OutLoud Text Reader is a text-to-speech program created by FairPlay137-TTS which aims to be a compatible, but modernized version of Speakonia. As of now, it only supports Microsoft SAPI 5 voices, but the developer aims to expand the list of supported engines in the future.
==Overview==
OutLoud Text Reader is easy to use for any user, regardless of skill level. In fact, Speakonia's user interface is very similar, right down to the keyboard shortcuts.
==Speech engines currently supported==
*Natural Microsoft Sam
*Natural Microsoft Mike
*Natural Microsoft Mary
*Microsoft Anna
*Microsoft David Desktop
*Microsoft Zira Desktop
*Microsoft Hazel (British English)
*Microsoft Mark Mobile (thru registry tweak)
*Microsoft Eva Mobile (thru registry tweak)
==Exporting as .WAV==
Like Speakonia, you can export the spoken text as a .WAV file. The developer also plans to add .OGG exporting. Unlike in Speakonia, though, registration is not required for exporting spoken text as .WAV files.

==Trivia==
*Many keyboard shortcuts in OutLoud line up with Speakonia's keyboard shortcuts.
*The implementation of SSML is different than in Balabolka. The developer is hoping to fix this in future releases.
*This is the first TTS text reader developed by a Microsoft Sam and his Fellow TTS Voices Wiki contributor (?).
*The test for all voices is: "Test 1 2 3; this is (voice name)."
