>From: harmo@cc.helsinki.fi (Timo Harmo, Fac. of Soc.Sci, U of Helsinki) >Does anybody know of systems for voice-databases connected to hypercard (or >something similar). I will be doing very much the same thing. I am using Cando, superbase profeesional, and AREXX on an Amiga2500/30. Are you using Mac II's? Hmm... If you do get answers, I would be VERY curious to see how you do this on any Mac. >What we woud need is a database of several hours of speech-samples that could >be accessed from the corresponding texts (litterations of the samples). Sounds like a jucgle of incompatibilities, sound, images and animation files are standard on the Amiga. I know this doesn't help you, but if you have access to Amigas, use them... >I think it woud require voice-compression, saving them in files in a worm-drive >(?), some simple dbms, and an interface (xcmnds) to hypercard. >If there isn't anything like that for hypercard, do you know any newsgroups >where I could ask about other ways of doing this kind of databases >(comp.databases.voice, sci.speech.analysis :-) -Timo Harmo Try Comp.sys.amiga, **.**.multimedia. Cando is exactly like hypercard, only it is on a computer which offers standard image, animation and sound files. ******************************************************************************* Stefan Buchholz * Concordia University Computer Science * a.k.a Stefy LePew stefan@doyle.cs.concordia.ca > MITE AVsita Multimedia lab system support << ******************************************************************************
