Ah nothing sounds like DECTalk like DECTalk 😉 That is
a good idea. I am not versed in Linux development so I have no idea what is involved with
using that. I would assume it would need at least one more component to be developed to
accpt the serial port input, respond to the control characters and pass the input to that
DECTalk code.
I tried to reply to this but for some reason my reply was rejected by
the moderator.
The moderator gave the following reason for rejecting your request:
"[No reason given]"
Anyway, I hoped to suggest that maybe Joe Grand could be convinced to
produce his EMIC2 speech synthesizer module again as it is a fully
DECTALK compatible module with serial interface. If you need USB,
you'd just frontend it with a USB to serial adapter,

They used to be sold by SparkFun but they stopped producing them in 2023.
