I wrote a function that translates midi notes to the equivalent Votrax pitch ( inflection ) value. Then I update the inflection register on the chip before voicing the phoneme.
Wow! It so reminds me to the work of Charles Dodge and his work at the Bell labs. I so like the cold and really artificial sounding computer voices because they sound what they are, made of electricity :)
Wow. This is funny AND incredible.

Votrax had an edge on SP0256 I believe.

When you first start the program the sign on message reminds me of the old Blazie Braille'n'Speak portable talking computer for the blind.
