[DECtalk] Too high-pitched notes, and DecTalk sounds distorted

[Dectalk at aol.com]

Gee, I'm honored.  I just finished the last song  for my new CD today.  It 
will be a 6 and a half hour MP3 CD with a ton of  commentary and Bible reading.  
I just have to do the Praise Medley over  because it's terrible!  I thought 
it was ok but it's really bad!  I  thought it might pass but man it's bad.
 
By the way, the song "I swear" was something I was  just messing around with. 
 I was trying to harmonize with the group.   It's nothing serious, but I'm 
glad you liked it.
 
About your song.  If you can send me the sheet  music I'll program it for 
you.  High notes are tricky but I love doing  them.  Just tell me what voice you 
want.  If you hear most of my stuff  you will find I can do nearly anything.

Hi,
I'd like to ask a question to DecTalk experienced users.
how  to manage high-pitched notes?
Well, I tried to build the song "moonlight  shadow", by Mike Oldfield, 
one of my favourite songs but the voice pitch  was very very high and 
not nice to hear; notes are, if I can remember  well, over the 26 
number! Or at least 24! The herz code to associate to  the phoneme, 
for producing the note, I mean.
I heard many songs on the  archive that I suppose are much more 
difficult than Moonlight shadow. That  song "i swear" by Snoopi Boten 
especially. He managed to make it sing  quite OK with All4one's voice 
in background! I'd never do something like  that, using the original 
song, as it would confuse me a lot.
and  Snoopi, if you read me, I am going to buy one of your cd's soon, 
after  holidays. I'd like to promote your skills in my country too. 
You deserve  it all.
Thanks in advance for advices on the high pitched notes
PS my  next synth challenge will be the song "happy  days"
