What are these files? PhraseALator1_0.zip PhraseALator1_2.zip PhraseALator1_3.zip What is the difference? Do they take any special hardware? What exactly do they do? Dave

Dave, Those are Windows programs to use the SpeakJet chip. Don't bother with the first two. The latest version 1.3 has a very nice dictionary built-in. You have to build a RS-232 interface to the SpeakJet chip. There are two schematics online for this if you want to experiment. In one of the photos taken at AHMW 2004, you can see my PSIM SpeakJet prototype module. It has a DB-9 connector on it for connecting it directly to my PC so I can use the PhraseALator software. OR... I simply throw a switch and it communicates with my PSIM-1. Also, it is looking like the PSIM SpeakJet module will be the first add-on module once I get all these PSIM-1's built and shipped.

What's the environment for running this program? I have the RS-232 interface to the SpeakJet. It looks like I need Visual Basic (which I don't have) on my system. Any other alternatives? Dave --- In SynthModules@yahoogroups.com, "Brice D. Hornback" <synthmodules@s...> wrote:

The VB runtime environment DBRUN300.DLL is freely available for download off the net. Is it saying you're missing other files?

I've added the MSCOMM32.OCX file and instructions for registering it with Windows on the SynthModules.com SpeakJet page. http://www.synthmodules.com/speakjet.htm I believe newer versions of Windows include (or do not need) this file.

Windows XP professional. I tried registering the file. regsvr32 is in my c:\windows\system32 folder, not my \system folder. I can now bring the program up. Thanks.

Hmmm... I'm running XP on one of my PC's and didn't have to do anything with that file. Maybe I have something installed that took care of that for me. I bet the full install of Office XP did that. I'll update the "instructions"... and maybe separate them by OS. If anyone else runs into this problem, please let me know how you fixed it.

Hey folks... I believe tonight's episode of Stephen King's Kingdom Hospital is the premier of both the SynthModules PSIM-1 and the Wiard Joystick Generator on Primetime TV! Don't forget to watch (and listen). http://abc.go.com/primetime/kingdomhospital/ HUGE thanks go out to film composer Gary Chang! - Brice "We are the music makers...and we are the dreamers of the dreams." - Willy Wonka, 1971
