Does anyone know of any kind of software program to imitate that thing Stephen Hawking uses to talk? That robotic sounding voice.
It'd be cool if you had it as a vst.
Thanks.

What I mean is a program where you type in text, not a filter.

my mother has such a program (she is visually disabled)... pretty fancy if you ask me, a voice says what you are writing ...
it costs LOOOOOOADS of money. i'm in my room now, but when i'm downstairs, i'll look for the name for you ;d

AnalogX makes a program called SayIt that does text-to-speech. I've used it a number of times; it works pretty well and it's free. Google it.

You can do this in TextEdit on a Mac. That is if you have a Mac.

Best,

thelibrarian: unfortunately, no.

relative q: I've heard of that one but I couldn't find it by typing in 'Say it' alone, so thanks!

df: there have to be some cheap versions too. I used to have this purple monkey computer program that did it
