LGR Oddware - DECtalk PC Speech Synthesizer (Patreon)
Content
Another of those items I've always wanted to talk about, so here we go.
Gotta love old school speech synths and the fact that this one is contained on an ISA card for use with DOS PCs? Doubly enjoyable. Hooray for full-length ISA cards!
While the original DECtalk is pretty well-documented, this PC version has proven to be trickier to figure out. Took some time to track down the right software and I haven't found out how to completely customize the voices through a terminal, but thanks to the documentation and emulator on archive.org I think this is a decent demonstration of the tech for this video at least.
Hope you enjoy!
