What is Balabolka?
Balabolka is a Text-To-Speech (TTS) program. All computer voices installed on your system are available to Balabolka. The on-screen text can be saved as a WAV, MP3, MP4, OGG or WMA file. The program can read the clipboard content, view the text from DOC, EPUB, FB2, HTML, ODT, PDF and RTF files, customize font and background colour, control reading from the system tray or by the global hotkeys.The program uses various versions of Microsoft Speech API (SAPI); it allows to alter a voice's parameters, including rate and pitch. The user can apply a special substitution list to improve the quality of the voice's articulation. This feature is useful when you want to change the spelling of words. The rules for the pronunciation correction use the syntax of regular expressions.
Balabolka can save the synchronized text in external LRC files or in MP3 tags inside the audio files. When an audio file is played with players on a computer or on modern digital audio players, the text is displayed synchronously (at the same way, as lyrics for songs).

i like how it easy to use this software
Best thing is It also has subtitles to audio converter.
Great Accessibility Tool, allows to choose different voices, speed, and pitch, reads PDFs (there is an option to format text), converts text to mp3 audio files. I would also say it's a great tool for Education, cause when you need to read a lot you can convert that to audio.
Great tool for free. Although it doesn't load images, great to read and convert (to audio) epub, mobi, pdf and lots of other files.
