Running the Code

you'll need to download a windows release of Piper: https://github.com/rhasspy/piper/releases Put the exe and other files right in the base directory... i know its a bit of a messy way to do things, but I'll try to clean it up in future releases.

You'll also need to grab the libritts_r onnx and json files for the voice to work: https://huggingface.co/rhasspy/piper-voices/tree/main/en/en_US/libritts_r/medium

And that should do it.
