problem with using talkie library

Development Tools IDE 1.x

Hi :slight_smile:

First of all I'm sorry for my poor English, but I need help to solve my problem.

I'm doing my personal project 'automatic chess game board' using arduino mega 2560 and I need

voice announcement for every move of chess piece.

So I searched for a while and found 'Talkie Library'. I followed all the instruction that provide by

user who have done successfully. I used arduino mega 2560, pam8403 for amplifier and two 4 Ohm

4 W speaker. but it didn't work. I realized that all the user of 'talkie library' used arduino UNO.

Is it possible to upload and using 'talkie library' in arduino mega 2560?

or is their other solution for my project to provide digital voice announcement(voice synthesis) without

using additional shield?

I'll be very appreciate for your help.

Thank you for read this question.

Have a nice day!

What exactly do you mean by "it didn't work"?

Hi pert.

I mean that no sound coming up from speaker. Even their are no error in any where.

I just curious that is it possible to use talkie library on Arduino Mega 2560?

To continue the OP's question, I'm looking to use Talkie on a Mega and I already saw in the Talkie library page that it doesn't work on a Mega but I'm wondering why and how much work it would take to fix it so it does work? I very much need some sort of voice synthesis on the Mega. Are there alternatives? Thanks.

So far in my searching, I've been unable to find any support on the Mega, which is kind of disappointing. First I find out the comparator doesn't work because it wasn't exposed on the board and now it seems the Mega is sufficiently different in architecture that many libraries don't work on it. This makes design decisions annoying - I chose the mega for its abundance of I/O, particularly the analog inputs, but I can't do voice on it so now I have to use I2C to command voice on a slave like a nano or something.
