Voice of the Commodore 64: SAM

========== BITTE LESEN ==========
Ja, ich bin im Internet über etwas gestolpert: S.A.M
Es handelt sich um eine Computerstimme für den C64.
Leider ist mein XA1541 nicht einsatzfähig, sodass ich "ihn" über einen Emulator sprechen lasse.
Achtung: Ich habe dieses Video nicht geschnitten, also sind die virtuellen Ladezeiten noch mit drin. Hier die Skip-Buttons:
Laden von S.A.M: 1:04
Laden von "SAY IT": 1:23
Laden der Demo: 2:33
Viel Spass :-D
EDIT: Bei Hatern und Trollen werde ich die Bewertungen deaktivieren, also bitte eine Begründung für eventuelles Disliken hinterlassen, Danke ^_^

[@slusheewolf2143]

Exactly why I'm watching this video xD
I recognized the synthesis from FAITH as this specific program because I have a VST on FL Studio that makes the same voice that emullates this program.

[@ZARGOFFUNIFLEX]

Thank you. SAM was pretty big for me. One of the few non game disks I owned, and a great memory to hear that voice again.

Sam is my favorite Vocaloid

[@c0j85]

It's not vocaloid tho it's just a synthesizer

[@TheWolfie234]

Fun fact he is emulated by the vocal synthesizer Chipspeech. As well as other old voice modules.

First I discovered Kraftwerk and then Sam Reciter.
My Commodore would never be the same from that moment.

[@lubosmotl5200]

Back in Czechoslovakia, I had C64 twice in the 1980s, my dad smuggled the computer for me in his car's engine from Bavaria where his brother had emigrated. I had Sam as well and although I spoke no English at all, I memorized the US anthem a syllable after a syllable. ;-)

sam has such a nice timbre! i could listen all day long.

This was pretty awesome. Remember trying as far as I could make it do swedish (svenska) pronunciation of the words. SAM had a lot of things you could do to tweak it actually.

[@chris-do]

Super ! Ich hatte das in den 80er Jahren auch auf den 64er , war schon sehr beindruckend, was damit möglich war.

Wizard of Wor is compatible with a cartridge that provides voice generation.
This cartridge can synthesize speech, but S.A.M can do it without additional hardware.
But yeah, there are multiple ways.

[@WaxxyOne]

This is true, but as you can see from this video and also videos of Impossible Mission (which also used software voice generation), it takes the full processing power of the CPU to coordinate the speech, so the rest of the system/game has to completely pause while the voice is playing. If you notice when watching videos of Wizard of Wor using the Magic Voice cartridge, the voice can play over the game without interrupting the action, so there is something to be gained from extra hardware handling the voice output without taking the main CPU away from other activities.

Cool. Ich danke Dir für's Vorstellen. Ich habe bei der Workbench 1.3 vom AMIGA schon immer gerne das Programm Say benutzt. Dass dies auch auf meinem Vorgänger, dem C64 möglich war, wusste ich gar nicht. Ich werde es nachholen. Danke Schön für's Vorstellen ... 👍😉😊

I can't believe it took 90 seconds to get the demo started! Wow! I knew the C64 was slow, but the same software can be run on an older Atari 8bit(800) in 1/2 the time! So that is why the C64 community raves about the Sid chip. There is little else it has that was better...sad...
