[sdiy] speech synthesizer

[gino wong]

I would suggest you go get a Dectalk board or dectalk express used or
even cheaper an  echotalk , they are well documented.  I used an
original standalone dectalk for many years and all I ever had to worry
about was programming it in musically useful way.  These things are
plentiful cheap and underused.
