Damn! And Clay and his friend Larry just had me convinced it was a "Formant
Synthesis". Like I'd know the difference!

The data sheet did say it used 12 filter coeffecients, which sounded like LPC.

I believe there was a little information on how the data was fed to the
SP0250, which lines to place the data on, and which one to strobe kinda
thing. But there was no information on what the data being sent to the
SP0250 represented.

I'm supposed to have dinner, on Mon. with the friend who managed to dig up
the old GI data book that had this tidbit of information in it, I'll ask him
to bring it then to see if there really is anything useful in the one page
description given.
