I love your chrome extention very much. and i am using it almost everyday by producing sentence to study dutch language. The reason i want to contact you is that i want to ask if it is possible to improve the mp3 quality? According to the documentation, 'The quality of the OGG_opus is considerably higher than MP3 while using approximately the same bitrate.' and The result will be a file which can be played natively on Android, and in browsers (at least Chrome and Firefox). so would you consider to improve the sound quality by adding OGG file output in the update ? let us know. here you can see the documentation: https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/docs/reference/rest/v1/text/synthesize?hl=nl#audioconfig

while the extension is great, when i try to open the downloaded MP3 in Adobe Premiere or Soundbooth or even Audacity, the file crashes. I get an "unsupported format or damaged file. the weird part is, as if the mp3 file itself changes because of the crash, because when i originally play it, it works well. then when i open it in Premiere Pro, it doesn't import it. But then, when trying to play it again, it plays random weird noises instead, like an audio tape playing accelerated or a disk scratch. the only workaround that bug i found is to first convert the file through an online audio converter (such as https://online-audio-converter.com thereby reducing the kbps for example to 192kbps. then you download the new file and voila! magically now your file is opened properly by Adobe apps an Audacity. Not sure what causes this bug, but it may have to do with my Nvidia graphic cards (i have two GeForce GTX 660 Ti configured through SLI), just an idea, because since my displays are spanned with surround, Nvidia doesn't recognize for example Audio from one of the two screens. anyway, fantastic extension, but it sucks to download mp3s i can't edit directly. a waste of time, but in the end i got it to work through my workaround.

I appreciate WaveNet for Chrome very much on my Mac. I really need to be able to save lossless files for importing the WaveNet audios into my videos and into other projects. The current MP3 mono 24Khz 16 bit saved format is rather limiting for me. Is there any way you can save to FLAC or WAV or Apple Lossless file formats as a stereo file at 44.1kHz 16 bit audio instead of as a mono 24kHz 16 bit MP3 file, which really limits the audio quality that is saved? Thank You.
