Brandon,
How is your SAPI5 version of the Software Automatic Mouth project coming
along? There has been nothing on this list about it for a couple of weeks. I
have heard samples of that synth from the 80's and would find it fun to play
with a SAPI5 version.

Hi,


I already have a small limited sapi5 version of this set up on my
laptop by using Mk Voice, and it is not choppy. It sounds almost as
good as Sam does when you directly write text.

Thanks,

Brandon
