"Speeding up" Black Hole's voice

[Rob]

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

I don't know if it's me or what, but sometimes it seems the electonic
voice on my Black Hole machine sounds a bit slow. All other sounds seem
to play at the correct speed. Is there any way to "speed up" the voice
just slightly without affecting the other sounds?

If this was a williams machine I would recommend changing your
oscilator crystal (kinda funny to slower the speed on a pinbot
Speech/BGM board). But its not, I would check your DAC(SSS1408-6P) or
even your NE555P timer.

Yes, the voice speed is controlled by pot R6 on the S/S board. It is
the left of two pots in the lower-right-hand corner of the board
(assuming you're looking at it with the edge connector on the right).

Heh. The Knight is no fast talker as neither his
buddy Gorgar....Pretty common for the available
technology of the day.

I believe Darren is correct, you can adjust the pot and change the
voice characteristics. If you want to see this done, check out the
TOPS Haunted House/Black Hole videos.

Uhh, nevermind.....

I was thinking Black KNIGHT.

Yes, there is an adjustment on the "Hole"

There are some 'adjustable resistors' on the sound board.

Yes, I turned that pot right there you mentioned and sure enough the
voice sounds a little faster! Just right! Thanks so much!
