SAM TTS: A Deep Dive into the Retro Voice Engine, Tetyys, and Its Place in the AI Era
SAM uses Phoneme Synthesis, a rule-based system. Modern tools use End-to-End Neural TTS, often built on advanced architectures like Transformers, which learn from vast amounts of human speech data to generate new audio from scratch. This allows them to capture the subtle nuances of human intonation, rhythm, and emotion in a way rule-based systems never could. The case of "Better SAM,"; a modern implementation that aimed to clean up the original's audio, is telling.

I somehow got hold of this when I was 10 to 12 years old. You could run it with basic programming. It was really cool.
It was weird but you had to load a separate module for vowels. Otherwise it couldn’t speak the and they would just buzz.

My 10 year old self enjoyed hours of laughs getting SAM to say cuss words with just the right inflection and also to record naughty phrases that I could then use with my tape player and still have plausible deniability. “Really mom, it wasn’t me! It was the computer obviously!”. 🤣

On Windows about the best I have found was using the speech API and voices from AT&T Natural Voices: https://nextup.com/attnv.html They are however VERY expensive if available at all. I have run into projects where the usage/business model was so far from what AT&T was thinking of that they wouldn't even sell a license.
There is a free software alternative, Festival: http://festvox.org/ , the quality though is horrible. It is about 10 years behind the current sound quality of commercial systems. It is however free.
A third alternative which has worked well for me was to shift the voice synthesis part of a few projects to OS X. OS X has a decent set of tools and speech APIS and a fairly decent set of stock voices. The downside of course is that prorams written for these APIs run only under OS X which runs only on Apple hardware.
