could always use the default one that comes with FL (benga uses it quite a bit)
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

Are you on mac or pc?

I cant remember the name of it right now, but I found one for mac that exports the sound to a .wav file... Ill have a look again if youre on a mac.

i am on a pc. i tried to rewire the fruity loops one but it doesnt appear in the instrument list. i dont usually use fruity loops so i am i bit baffled by it. does it save the voice to a wav sample and if so where does it go

You can create the sample in FL and use ur FX etc and then save as a .wav or .mp3 from FL.

just save the selected channel once u have the voice made.

I'd like to hijack this thread to ask about a particular old skool voice synthesis program, or should I say "prg" for the Atari ST. It's been used by artists such as Altern-8 and Polygon Window and on an ad for a dance compilation called 'Mega Lo Mania (http://www.discogs.com/release/670423)'

can anyone remember what this was called, and better yet, can anyone provide a link to an emulation of it? it's a big, buzzy, noisy piece of crudeness, but boy is it due a comeback!

It was called Doctor Tiricc if it's the same thing you're talking about. There was a PC conversion out there for a while (look for a file called STSPEECH.zip)... I couldn't find it myself though. Happy hunting.
