# macOS Text-to-Speech
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The macOS Text-to-Speech (TTS) service uses the macOS "say" command for producing spoken text.
|
|
|
|
Obviously, this service only works on a host that is running macOS.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
There is no need to configure anything for this service.
|
|
|
|
## Voices
|
|
|
|
It automatically scans all available voices and registers them, see e.g.
|
|
|
|
