Speech-Synthesis
Hi,
There are only few people, who used ring-modulation to simulate Speech....
I even want try it, but unfortunately I don't have any idea how this works
Before I waste time by testing I ask here: Is there someone with knowledge?
Btw: Is there someone who can tell me, what the voice in AGEMIXER'S song "Da Shit (Eastwood Jack's Red..)" says?

sam uses up all cpu power so u cant show any fx while its talking -> no demo uses it. |

Indeed!
There must be another way to create quality speech without losing cpu power. |

Yes, ring mod, which was discussed a few posts ago...

my reversed version renders into a buffer so you can play the sample while other stuff is going on...however, this means lower quality (SAM originally uses very tight timing, meaning a pretty high samplerate). oh well...guess cleaning it up and releasing it will be next thing after my disk-transfer-mayhem =P |

it's no secret that i am lazy =D
however, its really almost done now... someone else has made a proper (even fully working) translation to ansi C, and my reversed version also has no more (known) bugs.... so yes, it will definetly be the next thing after the remaining 1000 disks are transfered. |

guys, this c-64 'speech synthesis' is made with sync not ring-mod ;) |

Some detailed info about Strobosphere 2:
- It derivates from "Strobosphere". Is onespeed.
- I reconstructed some instruments for cleaner and tougher sound+melody, having darker and more trancy feeling than V1
- I was asked for a tune for "Halfway there" by Dekadence
- The middle tranquilizing part was too boring, so i decided to surprise a bit by adding filter speech saying "StRRobosFeerrr - HHaaaweiii tHeeeerrr" to promote the demo |

The speech in Strobosphere 2 was achieved by:
* A simple, narrow "triggering" pulse with bass frequency and high sustain
* A lowpass filter with highest resonance, using few sweep lists with
accurate timing.
* The "trigger pulse" should be narrow enough to give power only to the filter
, reducing that unwanted "bass boom".
* The "R" sound was achieved with either $41/$40-waveloop (=with ADSR) or
$41/$01-waveloop (=with waveform), can't remember exactly.
* Made up the word-starting instruments+notes, split to 7 parts (IIRC,
why do i remember it was just 4):
"S", "trobo", "S", "fere", "Halfway", "There"
* Note that the speech is ONLY cut in places where those stronger,
"hitting" consonants should take place! :)
* Finally added a slow slide-down to each word part. Thats it!
That vocal phrase was all made up in less than an hour. |

There is a GOOD reason why i haven't dared to release the lyrics for Da Shit Eastwood Jacks... Why do you think the whole thing is sencored to death? :D I could have been disqualified from Assembly 2004!
For the same reason i'm not copypasting the lyrics to the forum... :) |
