Slylandro Probe
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The voice of the Slylandro probe is "Bruce" from MacInTalk Pro. MacInTalk
Pro requires a 68040 Mac, a Quadra or Performa, and System 7.3 minimum.
Basilisk II emulator can do Quadra 900 well enough.
The probe speech added to UQM was processed as follows:
1) generated on Basilisk II v0.8.0.142 running System 7.5.3 Rev 2 on
Quadra 900. Words like "hundred" and "point" were mid-sentence to get
better intonation. Names of tens -- 20, 30, etc. -- were cut from number
phrases "twenty-five", "thirty-five", etc.
2) captured at 44100 Hz
3) post-processed with Audacity 1.3 beta; filters:
a) GVerb: room 40m, reverb time 0.1s, damping 0.85, input bandwidth 0.75,
dry signal +0dB, early reflection -22dB, trail level -30dB
b) Amplify: +2.5dB (depends on your capture level)
c) Bass boost: centered at 300 Hz, +4dB
4) chopped up and exported at 11025 Hz
