Your version of festival probably has no default voice set. You can do 

    sudo apt-get install festvox-rablpc16k

And set the default voice as in festival console

    (set! default_voice 'voice_rab_diphone)

You can find more details in https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=677277

  • I was trying to develop a new voice in my language. i read several research papers and tried to do that with the aid of some articles. i tried more than 15 times. every time i failed. so you know how to do this voice creation. please help me to get some step to forward – thilina.gg Mar 22 '18 at 15:28
  • There are different types of voices you can build in festival. You could build a diphone-based voice (http://www.festvox.org/bsv/c3583.html), unit selection voice (http://www.festvox.org/festvox/x3086.html) or limited domain voices (http://tts.speech.cs.cmu.edu/11-823/hints/clock.html). You will need a set of phones and recordings for your language for building voice in your language. – rupshri Mar 23 '18 at 15:50
