 Re: C= V364 revival project? (Plus/4 in new housing+Num keyboard)

@George: we don't have documentation for the phoneme data. It would be difficult to make our own customized speech without that documentation.

All I have found so far is "ripping" speech data from the C64 programs that support Magic Voice. I sent SVS some Magic Voice documentation and a .d64, so that he can add the V364 equivalent information to his Ultimate Map.

If you want to try it yourself:
1. locate Magic Voice speech data from a C64 program (the site I "borrowed" from is offline, so I can't link)
2. Set YAPE to V364, and tick the Toshiba box
3. LOAD "vocab data",8,1
4. VOC(24576) : REM load address of Magic Voice data. CBM documentation says this is 32768 on a C64
5. SAY 1024 : REM custom words start at 1024. Built-in words are 0 through 260

@MMS: Bo Zimmer claims that his V364 has 3+1. His V364 is one of the CES prototypes (3+1 did not exist yet), so 3+1 was obviously added by a Commodore engineer at some later point.
