Produlz.com is pleased to announce, “The Voice recording participation for a new speech synthesis software that is being developed by the University of Vigo”.
This time, the “Text to Speech Engine” is in the language of Galician, co-official language of the Galician region of Spain.
According to information obtained from Wikipedia, the Galician language can be seen as an evolution of Galician – Portuguese, with some Latin influences and particular traces not seen in Portuguese.
12 female Voiceover artists have participated in the first selection last week. In the next week, 5 Voiceover artists will participate in a new selection to help us to define who will be the chosen “one”.
The final phase will be recorded at the “Studio Music Metropolis” from May 18 to June 05, and shall be accompanied by Fernando M. Areias, Director of Produlz.com. Afterwards he will be touring Europe for a few more weeks of business meetings and a little fun, of course.
Meanwhile in Brazil the 10,000 phrases that are being recorded will be edited at our Produlz.com studios in São Paulo by our very own Brian Hudson.
We would like to thank Ms. Daniela Braga, Microsoft language development center, for putting us in contact with Mr. Fran Campillo, project manager for University of Vigo, at the beginning of this year.
Stay tuned for more news.

Congratulations to the Produlz.com team! Good luck to you Brian… editing 10,000 phrases is not exactly a piece of cake.
Good on you Brian. Let me know if you need some Great White North phrases, eh?
Thanks Paul it will be a diligent task.
As long as we don’t use the phrase “you hoser” Doug. lol
Congratulations to the entire team! Who knows? Maybe one day there will be satellite offices worldwide.
Do you actually say, “You hoser?” The 80s are back!
Well that is one of the few lasting funny things I remember of the Canadian accent. lmao
hmmm… The only time I heard “You Hoser” is on the show “How I met your mother” the actress who says it is in fact a Canadian playing a Canadian… but In the many years I lived in Toronto … I never heard it.
true story!
heh
