Any experience with RiTa and mbrola?[SOLVED]

Im wrestling with getting mbrola voices going with RiTa.
Really getting any voices beyond 8-bit kevin would be a plus.

I put the mbrola executable in Processing's library folder, and I have the path to it setup, which seems to be working. However, once I specify a voice errors start cropping up.

In an effort to find where RiTa has kevin stored I started digging through the various jars that it ships with. I see some FreeTTS stuff hanging out in there, but I can't yet come up with how it is all working.

The only thing I've been able to find out there using RiTa and mbrola is a google code project titled lifethreads, which hasn't shed much light on my situation.

I'm working with some limited java experience, and some Processing experience.

--Solution
I had the executable in the MbroliX.app folder. Ripped it out of there and set a path straight to it. No more errors... there.
