I am slowly working on a new version I want your feedback but understand this is a stepwise process so I need feedback on both what you like and what you don't like. Attached is a very short piece of Paul. The way the gains of the vocal track have to be tuned I'm only going to focus on Paul or perhaps a different voice if you'd prefer until we get closer to what we want. I'm almost afraid to mention something, but I have archived the last research DECtalk version that Dennis was working on when he died, I may try to get it running obviously it was never finished. In that regard does anybody know of a utility that can convert an old 16 bit sound file into a wave file?</div>
