Mumble is an open source, low-latency, high quality voice chat software primarily intended for use while gaming. It includes game linking, so voice from other players comes from the direction of their characters, and has echo cancellation so the sound from your loudspeakers won't be audible to other players.

Ever wanted to cut out background noise when talking with others on Skype? Now it's possible! NoiseGator is a light-weight noise gate application that routes audio through an audio input to an audio output. In real-time the audio level is analysed and if the average level is higher than the threshold the audio bypasses as normal. However, if the average level goes below the threshold, the gate closes and the audio is cut. When used with a virtual audio cable it can act as a noise gate for a either a sound input(microphone) or sound output(speakers). Can also be used to gate noise from your own mic or play your microphone through your speakers. REQUIREMENTS: - Java 7 or higher for Windows. - Java 6 or higher for Mac. Java 7 recommended. - A virtual audio cable is required for use with VOIPs: For Windows users I recommend the VB-Cable driver (http://vb-audio.pagesperso-orange.fr/Cable/index.htm). Mac users can use SoundFlower.

FreeTTS is a speech synthesis engine written entirely in the Java(tm) programming language. FreeTTS was written by the Sun Microsystems Laboratories Speech Team and is based on CMU's Flite engine. FreeTTS also includes a partial JSAPI 1.0

PersonaPlex is an open-source real-time conversational speech AI model that goes beyond traditional text chat by providing full-duplex speech-to-speech interaction, meaning it can listen and talk at the same time instead of waiting for you to finish speaking before responding. This architectural approach eliminates awkward pauses and makes conversations feel much more human-like, with natural behaviors such as overlapping speech, interruptions, and fluent turn-taking, traits that traditional AI assistants typically lack. PersonaPlex also supports persona and voice control, allowing developers to define the role and speaking style of the agent using text prompts and voice conditioning, making it suitable for applications like customized voice assistants, interactive character agents, or domain-specific conversational tools. Internally, it processes continuous audio streams in a hybrid input format so that speech understanding and generation occur jointly.
