@NanoRaptor i do enjoy expandable systems being taken to their ridiculous extremes and i wish we had more of it in the world
@SDWolf not almost, seeing as though TI also made the speak n spell and they use the same LPC speech encoding chip
however in neither cases i would call LPC encoding speech synthesis seeing as though completely new sounds need to be encoded from real speech recordings first
it's more like a really clever method of sampling human speech
