tripletalk (was 4DOS)

[Nick Stockton]

The TrippleTalk is from Access Solutions the same people that make the 
DecTalk USB.
http://www.axsol.com
No idea what chipset it uses or what other kind of hardware it has that's 
why I was asking on here.
I was curious to know what made it different from the DoubleTalk hardware 
wise as I've been thinking of getting another external synth.
The funny thing is my doubletalk LT is a quarter of an inch smaller in both 
length and width and my LiteTalk is even smaller in width.
I was under the same impression as you that the TrippleTalk USB didn't work 
with speakup but I guess if Kirk uses them every day then they must be 
supported.
Either that or there is a really nice version of speakup that we don't know 
about where every synth in history from the Echo to the Sounding Board has a 
supported speakup driver *chuckle*.
