"Once you get the sample in, you can execute all kinds of modifications of the sample. For example, the "reverse" function is worth the price alone. Reverse the sound of a toilet flushing - it is the ultimate alt percussion experience. The unit comes with a PROM chip; to get you started (plug it in to your DMX for new sounds), and be sure to check out Paul White's Electrongate for other details on this neat device. I have printed out the instruction manual, and this is included with the unit, as well as an AC cable."

1975: The first speech synthesizer IC was born. [To Return in 2015 with Plogue's Chipspeech Project]

Published on Jan 12, 2015 Plogue Art et Technologie, Inc.

"In 1974/1975 Dr. Forrest S. Mozer licensed his unique voice compression technology to Telesensory Systems, Inc. (TSI).

Encoding words was a very complex and time consuming process. Something only he and a few of his colleagues could do. Most of the TSI/Digitalker-using consumer devices of the late 70's and early 80's used Dr Mozer's own voice, compressed by a factor of 100.

This is the voice you are hearing in the video.

Last year we've obtained his authorization to use his voice for our 'chipspeech' project.
Thank you infinitely Dr. Mozer!
