Hi there,

I&amp;amp;#39;m learning the Text to Speech service and am trying to improve the sound quality.

the stock quality using

&amp;amp;#34;X-Microsoft-OutputFormat&amp;amp;#34;: &amp;amp;#34;riff-8khz-8bit-mono-alaw&amp;amp;#34;,

is poor sound quality...

however when i switch to another option (listed here)

my audio file (mp3) won&amp;amp;#39;t play on and i get an error that the file is corrupt.

Do you have any suggestions for improving the sound quality? thank you :)

In the case of Python, by using the RIFF format (stated in there), you can get better quality file.
