Hello, friend What’s up! In today’s article, we will build together a Voice Imitator with Python, pyttsx3, and SpeechRecognition libraries the project is short, simple, and beginner-friendly.

# **Ready? Let’s get started!**

# **REQUIREMENT**

First of all, you need to install Python on your machine if you have Python on your device skip this

To install Python, visit the official Python website: [ _[https://www.python.org/downloads/](https://www.python.org/downloads/)_ ] and download it

**Done? Great!**

Now, install the library we will be using for this project

To install the library, type this command into your command prompt or terminal:

```
pip install SpeechRecognition
```

```
pip install pyttsx3
```

**SpeechRecognition**: To record the voice and turn it into a text

**pyttsx3**: when the voice returns to a text, the pyttsx3 turns the text into a voice

# **Coding Part**

# **STEP.1**

Import the libraries we’re going to use in our projects

Like this:

```
import speech_recognition as sr
import  pyttsx3
```

Why “as sr”: To make it short, For example, instead of writing `speech_recognition.Recognizer()`, you can write `sr.Recognizer()`

# **STEP.2**

```
rec = sr.Recognizer()
```

The line `rec = sr.Recognizer()` creates a new Recognizer object called `rec`.

# **STEP.3**

```
with sr.Microphone() as src:
    print("Say something...")
    audio = rec.listen(src)
    text = rec.recognize_google(audio)
```

`with sr.Microphone() as src:`: This line tells the computer to start listening to the microphone. The microphone is now called `src`.

`print("Say something...")`: This line tells the computer to print a message that says "Say something..." to the person using the program. This is a reminder for the person to speak into the microphone.

`audio = rec.listen(src)`: This line tells the computer to listen to the microphone for a while and store the recorded sound as `audio`.

`text = rec.recognize_google(audio)`: This line tells the computer to use Google Speech Recognition to convert the recorded sound (`audio`) into text. The text is stored as `text`.

# **STEP.4**

```
engine = pyttsx3.init()
```

This line tells the computer to activate the voice synthesizer, which is used to turn text into a voice.

# **STEP.5**

```
engine.say(text)
```

This line tells the computer to use the voice generator (`engine`) to read aloud the text (`text`) that the person just said. It's like pressing the "play" button on a recording device to listen to what the person just recorded.

# **STEP.6**

```
engine.runAndWait()
```

This line tells the computer to wait until the voice generator (`engine`) has finished reading aloud the text (`text`) before moving on to the next step. It's like waiting for the recording to finish playing before turning off the device.

# **STEP.7**

Run the program and say something

**NOTE**:

If the program doesn’t work try to do this

```
pip install setuptools
```

# **FULL CODE**

```
import speech_recognition as sr
import  pyttsx3

rec = sr.Recognizer()

with sr.Microphone() as src:
    print("Say something...")
    audio = rec.listen(src)
    text = rec.recognize_google(audio)

engine = pyttsx3.init()

engine.say(text)

engine.runAndWait()
```
