The full story
The poster made a virtual recreation of the obscure Votrax SC01 and SC02 speech synthesizer chips, which Kraftwerk used for some vocals. They found the schematics, fed them into Claude, and used their own real chip for cross-referencing and fine-tuning. They say it "sings like a dream" and link a video demo.
