<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That works too. But I really wish there was another
synth that was fairly accessible like Dectalk but sounded a little better. Still
many of these synths aren't free like dectalk is, and, although the default
voices get quite boring I have heard some interesting and almost human-like
voices created with it.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Try this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>[:phonemeon] ['dherz]</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That should get the word going, for singing
it's just a matter of putting the notes in like you would do for any other
syllable. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>HTH.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Speaking of phonemes, Dectalk says the word,
just, differently from other synths. It's good enough but I wonder what
phonemes it's using? I am not sure if it occurs in just version 4.3, or in
other versions, but I'll have to check on it.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is there a better way to sing the word
there's correctly? i have i have dh<>eh<>rrz. i
didn't put any notes. in this email. The reason why I'm asking
is, cuz the way dectalk sings it, doesn't sound right. too heavy on
the r it seems. Thanks for any suggestions.</FONT></DIV>
