title: Is there a text-to-speech software that accepts IPA-based phonetic transcription?
body: <p>I would like to translate phonetic text (IPA) to synthesized speech. No TTS software that I have found can do this and I can't find any other software either. Any tip? Is this even doable in theory with decent quality or isn't the phonetic text (IPA in this case) good enough for this?</p>
  
  <p>Loquendo's TTS has support for reading phonetic text but the result is very bad. I'm going to contact their support to get some help.</p>
