On a related topic, someone is offering to trade me
some GI SP0256-AL2 ICs
for equipment here. Assuming I can get the DIGITALKER working, I do remember
that it always had issues in that there was a limit to the vocabulary. I
always wanted to build a SC-01 or SP0256 phenome-based system to compare.
Does anyone have experience in one or the other and can relate whether it's
worth it to get an SP0256, or whether I should keep looking for an SC-01A or
similar.
I have a VS100 voice synthesizer for my TRS-80 Model III, which is
based on the SC-01-A. If I get a chance, I'll hook it up and record some
samples.
