from the NetBSD maintainer:
This voice provides an American English male voice using a residual
excited LPC diphone synthesis method. It uses the CMU Lexicon
pronunciations. Prosodic phrasing is provided by a statistically
trained model using part of speech and local distribution of breaks.
Intonation is provided by a CART tree predicting ToBI accents and
an F0 contour generated from a model trained from natural speech.
The duration model is also trained from data using a CART tree.

It is sampled at 8 kHz and conflicts with the festvox-rab16 package
(16 kHz samples).

Flite is a small fast run-time speech synthesis engine. It is the
latest addition to the suite of free software synthesis tools
including University of Edinburgh's Festival Speech Synthesis System
and Carnegie Mellon University's FestVox project, tools, scripts and
documentation for building synthetic voices. However, flite itself
does not require either of these systems to compile and run.
Flite is the answer to the complaint that Festival is too big, too slow,
and not portable enough.
This is a Fluid (R3) General MIDI soundfonts, for use with any modern MIDI
synthesizer: hardware (like the EMU10K1 sound card), or software (like e.g.
FluidSynth).
This package provides both the larger GM sound set and smaller GS sound set
of Roland Sound Canvas extensions.
The FluidSynth-DSSI is a wrapper for the FluidSynth SoundFont-playing
software synthesizer, allowing it to function as a DSSI plugin.
