I'm thinking this is an idea for the more advanced SDK devs out there. Imagine a modular module with text entry & alphabetical recognition linked to an internal speach synthesiser. You type in a word or two & press a 'talk' button...
Anyone think this would be possible? Anything is possible right?

In fact, a standalone SFP device with the power of Vocaloid would be incredible.

From what I remind from my studies, speech synthesis is mostly a matter of getting some sound sources (called voiced or unvoiced) and gettting them from formant filters (bandpass filter actually).
Voiced sounds are risponsible for voyels generation ([a], , [o]) as unvoiced sounds are just filterd noise...
Now the problem would be to build up sommething which could be fed with text.
The only idea I have know would be to use a pattern generator ...
Will have a look if I still can find something more acccurate about this topic.
