<br>
You can get a much higher quality recording of ditties by sharing
them to Twitter, then using Youtube-DL to download the resulting
Twitter video URLs. That's the only way I know of to get a first
generation copy. As played through Amazon Echo, a lot of treble is
lost.<br>
<br>
I, too, wonder what voices they're using to sing. The fact that it
can sing whatever you throw at it means they're not using a huge
library of samples or something.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
I received an Amazon Echo Dot for Christmas. I learned today that my Echo
now has a new feature called Diddy. If I speak a short message, it is
converted into a song sung by computerized voices with background music. The
voices and music are selected at random. I can change the song, if I need
to, until I find a voice/melody I like. I have created a few diddies using
the Diddy skill on my Amazon Echo Dot. I recorded them onto my computer
using a line-in cable. Does anyone want to hear my diddies? The voices are
not Dectalk. I don't know if they are proprietary, created by the Diddy
company which made the Echo Dot skill available.
