Re: Classic home computers and the blind. Your experiences
I do still have the A4. I can't make it sing, but I know how to operate the music composer. Sadly I have the A4 standard. I wish I had the Pro, since that apparently had a Yamaha FM sythesizer. That would have been really cool to have. If you can give me a link to the song you want me to do, I can try to make it with the music composer and record it with a patch cable.
The talker mode would work perfectly, but I don't actually know what character I have to send to it to make the speech stop. This means that I could theoretically hook it up to a computer and use it with a screenreader, but I wouldn't be able to interrupt the speech, which would suck. One of these days I'll get around to trying all the basic Ascii set when I'm bored. Most synthesizers used a control-x character, the KNG used a Control-C, the Sonobraille used... something weird that I can't remember, but the A4 doesn't respond to them. Does anyone know of any vintage screenrea der that supported the Eureka? I could capture what it sends with the BNS and figure it out that way.
