It is a bit different for different synthesizers, but you "echo" values
to /proc/speakup/rate. For example for my doubletalk I use the
following.

echo 9 >/proc/speakup/rate

That gives me the fastest speed for the doubletalk, but other synths
have different ranges of speeds, if you try to put incorect values in
there I think it will give you an informative error message. Make sure
not to for get the greater than symbol.
