Hal 9000 vs Propeller Vocal Tract

Circuitsoft

Has anyone programmed a sequence with the vocal-tract object to sing Daisy Bell?

But wouldn't you have to kill the Prop afterwards?

And I had an old PC that on shut down sang Daisy Bell. And said "I'm sorry I can't do that, Dave" in place of the error ding. Guess what the start up sound was!

I programmed my first computer, designed and built in the early 70s, to sing Daisy Bell, and every computer I've owned since that time. So getting the Propeller chip to sing Daisy is definitely going to happen. There are singing demos already available for the object in the OBEX so this should be a matter of putting in the notes and phonemes and tweaking it.

Here's a link to the sheet music for starters.

My Heathkit Hero Junior sings "Daisy" regularly.
