Hi guys

I have all the parts for my first CMM2 en route. However, I am very curious regarding the "robot voice". Could somebody record an example?  

Thanks,

Nicholas

it sounds a lot like those scratchy voices in 8 bit games on machines that didn't have (proper) sample playback

LOL!!!  

Here is a "Real" computer voice:

Link.

This is the free "George" voice by Microsoft in Windoze Ten.  I made this in GoldWave, but I think Audacity also can use the MS voices like this.  There are several free ones to choose from, and heaps of ones you have to pay for.  I find the free ones perfectly suitable.

Record what you want them to say as MP3's or WAV files, and have the CMM2 play the file as a prompt whenever you want.  Only limitation of that, is that everything being "Said" has to be pre-recorded, but that is easier then you think.

That sounds nothing like Pinbot...or HAL :)

Vocoder is the way for me, like an old-school Cylon.
