Chevelle! I'm sorry to say that I do not have a demo of the DEC-Talk USB. There is a very tiny sample on the Access Solutions page as Bruce points out but it's just the nine DEC-Talk voices introducing themselves. I've been after Access Solutions for at least a year to put a good sample up like they have for the Triple Talk but so far I've had no luck. I don't have a DEC-Talk USB here to make a demo either. Bruce, if I send you some text would you have DEC-Talk USB read it and send me the recording? Chevelle I must tell you that the DEC-Talk USB voices were painstakingly created after months of work by both Access Solutions and Phonix who owns the DEC-Talk name. The voices had to be recreated through peoples memory as the original specifications for 4.2 speech have been lost. Fortunately the person who was very much responsible for developing the 4.2 speech is still around and works for Phonix.
