The tech around creating digital composites of a person's voice is getting better by the day. Adobe's product is freakishly good, but there are now some free ways to fuck with this that are popping up.
Check out Lyrebird. It's free, cloud based, and takes a couple of minutes to record you reading 30 sentences, and then produces a digital composite of your voice which you can feed text into. It's not perfect, but it's remarkably good and a taste of what's to come.
For the other geeks: the cool thing about Lyrebird is an API so you can develop your own apps/services that use voices you create. Eg: You could make a Siri style assistant that speaks in your bosses voice and you can order it around all weekend.
