+Ksarul Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 It is the manual to the Speech Synthesizer. You can find it here on WHTech as a PDF file. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Schmitzi Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Hi, what is the name of the book ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 It was actually the tiny booklet that shipped with the Speech Synthesizer, Ralf. In addition to the general instructions for connecting the device, it also has a complete listing of the words in the built-in vocabulary.

+Schmitzi Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Ah, OK Ksarul, thanks. I think I have that in real. But if have to scan it will take a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 About that little book... I'd love to see it in PDF format, suitable for printing as a reproduction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 ah, here we are Speech Synthesizer (PHP1500) manual.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 ah, here we are ... suitable for printing as a reproduction. Thanks schmitzi, I knew about that one, but the quality is 'not quite there', if you know what I mean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 ah, OK, I just found that one, I will make a new scan from my one, if I find it, if you know what I mean . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I will make a new scan from my one, if I find it... THAT would be great! I hope you find it. You know, a lot of the old manuals and booklets could benefit from some modern attention. Back it in the day they were copied by some well meaning people, but with the lousy technology of the day. Many of them look like 1970's era Xerox copies, because that was what was probably used! Memory storage space was limited back then too, so stuff was compressed to the point of being nearly useless. Now days memory is no longer an issue, the copying technology is top notch and speed of transfer is really no problem either, so size should no longer take priority of over quality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Yes, I found it. As it is too big, you´ll find it right here (also with the additional scans in the subfolder): ftp://u67140205-atariage:TeXasTI994A@toxic-instruments.com/_DOCUMENTS.bak/PHP1500-Speech.bak/ I have only scanned the german parts, hope that is OK for you ? no, I haven´t 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newTIboyRob Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Ohm... did you try downloading schmitzi's original PDF post of that manual? I downloaded it fine, and the print out quality even from my piece of garbage HP Deskjet printer was more than decent.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) yep /EDIT/ was 600 dpi /EDIT2/ ..and did you see the subfolder there, with the original scan-files (JPGs) ? this is for everybody, as my PDF-skills are not up-to-date Edited March 9, 2015 by schmitzi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Speaking of books and scanning. I have these 4 boxed cartridges & cassette with their original books. I don't think there is much value in them, so I suppose I could slice the books up for scanning purposes if anyone thinks they would like a copy and a decent copy cannot be obtained anywhere else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newTIboyRob Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Ohm... another user offered to look for the original hard copy of the little Speech snyth book which he thought he might have and saw recently. I redirected him to you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Thanks. Actually, I've been thinking of making a little cheat sheet similar to the reference cards, but just the vocabulary information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I found an original speech manual in very good condition. I will try to do a better scan to offer up with the scanners we have at work. Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lee Stewart Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Thanks. Actually, I've been thinking of making a little cheat sheet similar to the reference cards, but just the vocabulary information. The speech synthesizer vocabulary is also listed in the Editor/Assembler Manual at “24.6 SPEECH SYNTHESIZER RESIDENT VOCABULARY”, pp. 422 – 427. ...lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
