@joshknnd1982 What are you even talking about Josh?
there are only two ways to get KeyNote Gold to run on modern Windows systems.
i don't know why you are so obsessed with getting KeyNote Gold Running on modern Windows systems anyways.
that's just stupid, and frankly a little bit immature.
You know that petition for KeyNote Gold On Android?
That would take 2 or 3 years just to get one Speech synthesizer emulated on android.
Not to mention the programming that would have to be done to get it to somehow work with the ARM architecture.
Also not to mention the programming that would be required to get it into an actual app on the google play store.
That is just so stupid i can't even believe it.
I mean sure, KeyNote Gold is an awesome synth, Don't get me wrong, But why would you want it running on modern Windows systems to begin with.
And still, like i mentioned, their are only 2 ways to get it running on any modern Windows system. The 2 ways are as follows.
1: get a BrailleNote mPower And Use the "Remote Synthesizer" Function set to COM port 5 and or COM port 3 if COM port 5 does not work properly.
2: get VMWare Player 12 From Jake's Website in the VMWare Folder.
Then download a file called Windows 95 dot e x e.
NOTE: Do not download from the win world p c category, as you will not have the Windows Eyes 5 point 5 or HAL screen reader included with the virtual machine.
Once you have the virtual machine installed, download the K N Demo application from jake's website in the old keysoft file category.
But seriously Josh. you need to stop being mentally stuck in the 1990s, and also you need to stop being stuck in the Mirena Trench of Logic.
This is getting really annoying, and it is also causing very unwanted drama in the speech synthesis community.
In fact, i bet if you somehow got a KeyNote SA for Christmas, you would be jumping up and down.
Well, you know how rare hardware speech synthesizers are to find these days.
Pretty much the only one that you can find right now is a DoubleTalk LT.
I mean, Seriously, Get REAL HERE JOSH!
Even if HumanWare or any of the people who made KeyNote Gold did want to get KeyNote Gold to run on modern Windows systems, It is highly unlikely that they would want to spend the time that it would take to program it to, or frankly it is highly unlikely that they would even care.
And even then, There is the fact that KeyNote Gold Is A 16 Bit Synth, So you would need a virtual machine just to get it to run on modern Windows systems.
So, there.
And if that still isn't enough, i think that KeyNote Gold will have something to say about that.
Don't believe me?
Well, Here's proof.
