Chipspeech

Chipspeech is designed to produce vintage-style vocals from synthesizers that were used by the music industry in the 1980s, having a cut off date of 1989 technology.

Users type the lyrics in and receive instant playback results which was a capability beyond the original soundchips the software vocals are based on.

Though English and Japanese come as standard, other languages can be created by direct entry of syllables.

This obsession eventually lead to further events which resulted in the creation of the Chipspeech software after he spent years hacking, protoboard making, probing, and reverse engineering the speech chips.

Voice improvements to Dandy 704 and Bert Gotrax were scheduled for the next release and were updated in 1.072.

[11] In addition, Chipspeech will be receiving the ability to talk as well as sing in its next major update.

One of its highlighted merits of the software was how rare some historical chips it aimed to recreate had become.
