Has anyone seen or heard of any hacks to the echo yet? Currently, I have my "personal assistant, Antonn" using Alexa. Key voice commands by him operate her when she can perform better than he can. My goal is a future Alexa voice change to male. I have seen some voice changes done on You Tube but they are beyond my skill level.
Has anyone heard of a voice service offering an Alexa's voice?
I think Alexa will be a great incorporation with an EZ-B in the future. Any opinions?

A question for Echo owners ( I don't have one yet): when Alexa speaks, does she use the same speaker that provides the sound for streamed music, or does she have a separate speech output/speaker? I have an (inelegant) idea for voice modification, but if the sound output is common to speech and other sounds, it won't work.
Thanks!
Same speaker for everything in the echo dot. Ive been experimenting with live voice changers that change pitch and gender. But run into the issue you are bringing up , if you want to play music, be prepared for some interesting results :/
..and all your robots will be named Echo, Alexa or Amazon...
They just added "Computer" as a name.
Using a voice modifier was what I was going to try, so there goes that idea out the window. Unless there's a filter switch that could turn the modifier on or off when the voice engages.
In my best Scotty voice , " computer on..."
LOL! That reminds me...........

Has anyone done more with Alexa ? I continue to transfer commands from my robot to Alexa for weather, music, radio, news, setting timers or alarms but that is it.
API.AI can call Alexa skills. There is an API.AI plugin already built.
