  • This is an edited version of the ten-minute-ish 10-inch record that Bell Labs put out in 1963 to show off their speech synth. But it wasn't the first. There was a more basic one at the 1939 New York World's fair, now also posted on You-Tube. Early vocoders were used during WWII and later wars to scramble and send top-brass messages and orders to commanders in the battlefield. A good book on the subject: "How to Wreak A Nice Beach" ("How To Recognize Speech", get it?) by Dave Tompkins.

  • I remember DecTalk (digital tech) was one of the best speech synths in the 80s. It was used a lot in automated phone switching. It was also used by the blind in DOS text to speech. The blind also used the Apple II with the Echo card made by Street Electronics a lot. This is soooo kewl!
