How shall your CPC speak to you?

This is the question! Please participate in the poll. 
(I ask this in particular for the new FutureOS update, but it's of general interest of course).

No problem, even under BASIC just enter !HAL9000 for a quote

Robot voice (male)
That is what I used back then with my progs, the speech disk.

i rather like the voices of numbers 1 to 4 in short circuit.  or the speech synthesis in Dasboot? (or is it a vocoder?)

Well technically, it's just a voice waveform added to a square wave. If that's what you like, go listen to Revolutions (1988) from Jean Michel Jarre. I remember building a small circuit to do this when the song came out (and annoying the sh*t out of anyone I could with it).

But.... she's a glitch! 




Ok, male to female is 4 : 4 now.... No decision yet! 

[GUNHED]

Alright it's 6 : 5 for female now. So my software will to girls talk in future. Release in the coming days...

Video(s) would be appreciated

Yes, as you told me via Email. And I still owe you the answer, because... all that making of videos is just not that easy. First one needs some kind of equipment... well, at the moment I lack it. But we'll see what can be done... 

[GUNHED]

Now 7:5 for female. You can listen to a female voice using LambdaSpeak III and the recent FutureOS, for example press I, O or C hotkeys. By altering a bit in ROM A you can switch over to a male voice. If you're interested let me know, then I can tell you how it's done.


For LS3 you can also use the !SETVOICE,v command to use voice (v) from 1 to 13. Tell me which one(s) you like. 


EDIT: Alter the byte &1E in ROM A to &1C, then it speaks male instead of female. Address is &C114.

Scarlett Johansson, please.
