Tyrant Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I'm looking to understand how STSpeech.tos works, with the hope of porting it to other platforms, and before I go poking about trying to disassemble it myself, I figured it would be smart to check incase anyone either has the source, or has done a disassembly of it before and could help me pick it apart. I know, a bit of a long shot, but it's such a commonly used voice I'm hoping someone has already taken it apart to see what makes it tick (or rather, speak).

Specifically in the programming sections. http://www.atari-forum.com/ Edited September 18, 2009 by lp060 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Thank you, I found what looks to be everything I need, mostly in this thread: http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2254 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Moss Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I was going to mention it at JFUK but I forgot, anyway there was a STOS program (just BASIC code) written by Tony Greenwood I think that would read out text on the ST, I assume that is they type of thing you are looking for. I have never tried STspeeach is it I do not know if it is better or worse but it might give you some ideas if you can find a copy, try asking some of the STOS people on Atari Forum if they have a copy or know where you can download it.

Interesting... in STOS basic you say? That's either very impressive or simply a wrapper that calls stspeech.tos I'll have a hunt for it, although now I've found a disassembly of stspeech I'll probably just go from that, since the sound of its voice is so well known and loved.
