I used to do this quite often. I'm curious though why you want to do =3D this with JFW now running on Eliquence. If you use your BNS 640 as a =3D synthesizer, you cannot use it for other functions while it is connected =3D to the computer.=3D20 How ever it provides a hardware device that is very responsive. That in it self is a reason to do it.=20 My point in all this is that there might be a better way to do what you =3D want without losing the functionality of your BNS. You do not lose the functionality.=20 You can always change to eloquence for a few moments turn off speech box mode do what you need with the bns and then turn speech box mode on again. Switch back to the bns. Easy as pie. =20 -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 11:20 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: braille 'n speak as an external synth? hi, can someone please let me know what to do in order to use a braille =3D 'n=3D20 speak 640 as an external synthesizer? you can contact me off list if=3D20 needed.
