SPO256 internal phoneme ROM
::: The software for the SSA1 has to be loaded from disc or tape (I will test this when i get a CPC up and running). I think the dk'tronics (also based on the SPO256) had at least the software on rom, dont know if it actually used the feature with a rom connected directly to the SPO256.

: No, this isn't a ROM for the CPC, it's the built-in phoneme ROM in the SPO256AL2, and it can only be read by using the serial output on the chip itself, which will require some hardware knowledge and the SPO datasheet. Yes, I do also have an SPO256 in my SSA-1, but no way to read it... Guess I'll have to desolder and pull the chip and connect it to my 8255 I/O board (no idea if that still works) :)
