Between 20 and 25 of them were made. Later, Michael Becker took the basic ideas of this card and expanded them to design his SPVMC card. I was one of the original buyers of the card. There was also a somewhat simpler design that showed up in an issue of TI-Revue, and which may have been the genesis of Winfried's idea, as he wanted to add vocabulary to the speech synthesizer. I provided him a copy of TIs Text-to-Speech disk (unknown in Europe at that time for some reason) early on in his development. Those routines are in the board's DSR. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary from OPA Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Would be good to get a archived dump of this DSR if possible for the records and for future projects. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the 8K RAM emulated a speech PHROM? Or maybe it was just a DSR with the text-to-speech program? I worked this weekend on recovering the TTS source from 8" floppy--doesn't look promising.

Looks like yours has the resistor network modification from the Willforth protoboard manual too--it mods the output so that all four channels can also be used in straight stereo mode using just the two center RCA connectors. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one too, It has RCA connectors instead of a Scart connector and Audio connector "or is that video in this case". Have been wanting a manual or documentation for a long time on this?
