Google Cloud Text to Speech
Google Cloud TTS is a high quality Text to Speech paid service which includes some Neural Network voices (marked as WaveNet).
Demo: https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech
please open an issue if you find that we are missing some voices https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/docs/voices
Google Cloud TTS is a paid service and requires an API key.
AwesomeTTS Plus subscribers have access to a shared Google Cloud TTS key: https://languagetools.anki.study/awesometts-plus
- go to https://console.cloud.google.com/
- create new project
- add payment method
- go to menu APIs & Services -> Credentials
- Create Credentials -> API Key
- Your API key should be restricted to _Cloud Text-to-Speech API _ For more information please see - https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/api-keys#creating_an_api_key
The following API key can be still valid and can be used for testing as long as it doesn't exceed 300 requests per minute and 1 million characters monthly free tier.

With the latest update it's also possible to use the Google API explorer key for a limited number of requests. For more information, please see https://github.com/kelciour/awesometts-anki-addon/pull/30
According to Pricing and Quotas & Limits, a monthly free tier for WaveNet voices is limited to 1 million characters (~23 hours) and 5,000 characters per request. It looks like it can be temporarily increased via Google Cloud Platform Free Tier.
