Funny I've actually been digging into this problem recently. I have a webaudio reimplementation of Klatt 1980 driven by cmudict. It still sounds pretty ass, but it's very early days. This weekend I intend to go deep dive on the Delta rule system that powers Eloquence. There're so many interesting papers from the late 90s early 2000s I bet we could get something pretty remarkable that sounds even better than Eloquence and is incredibly fast and runs anywhere.
