OK, I have found that I am a tone deaf idiot. I have been troubleshooting festival all this time and found that when I play an mp3 with sox it is playing in a low pitch also. When I originally tested it I only listened to the first few notes of a song then stopped it. It actually appears to be a problem with having vchans enabled. All sound seems to be playing in slow motion. Now maybe since I have identified the source correctly I can find a fix :-) -- Chad -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Zeng Nan Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2005 9:25 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Festival and vchans On Wed, Feb 16, 2005 at 11:41:16AM -0600, Chad Albert wrote: > > > I recently set "hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4" on a FreeBSD 5.3 box and now > when I try to get festival to speak I just get silence.
