Dale, Hmm, I missed the fact that the input does not expect analog signals. How about plugging the output of the Triple Talk into the microphone jack on the computer? You can set the computer to echo the microphone input through the speakers I believe?

That is the point, to direct the output of your screen reading software or other text to a device which will convert it to speech and speak that to you. You possibly could by sending the output of the Triple Talk to say recording software on your computer and then monitoring the sound of that recording software.
