This is a revised version of the Pink Trombone speech synthesizer originally developed by Neil Thapen in 2017. The original source code was modularized and converted to TypeScript. Then the TypeScript code was converted to Rust.
Pink Trombone uses two-dimensional digital waveguide synthesis to synthesize human speech sounds.

You can easily connect Pink Trombone to any audio framework, that accepts
f32 inputs. An example for
rodio.
