It’s also possible to save the spoken text as an audiobook. You can choose from all the most common sound file formats, including MP3, WAV, OGG and WMA. Click ‘File’ and select ‘Save audio file’. One of Balabolka’s best features is the ability to save converted text as a sound file. Rate is particularly useful – the standard voices sometimes speak a little slowly. You can also use the sliders underneath to adjust the rate, pitch and volume of the voice. If you’re not a fan of the default voice (in this case Microsoft Hazel Desktop), you can see which others are installed on your PC using the drop-down menu above the text entry box.
