This code is working but I\'m only able to switch between the voices which came preInstalled in Microsoft Windows. These voices are \"Microsoft David Mobile\" and \"Microsof

Answer 1

I have just noticed. To set the language⇓ This is just my default language setting is 'ja_JP'.

import pyttsx3

engine = pyttsx3.init()
voices = engine.getProperty('voices')
for voice in voices:
    print voice
    if voice.languages[0] == u'en_US':
        engine.setProperty('voice', voice.id)
        break

engine.say('Hello World')
engine.runAndWait()

or

voice.name == 'Alex'

Answer 2

You can try this code:

import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()
voices = engine.getProperty('voices')
for voice in voices:
    print(voice, voice.id)
    engine.setProperty('voice', voice.id)
    engine.say("Hello World!")
    engine.runAndWait()
    engine.stop()

Then instead of the for loop, just pick up your preferred voice.id
