As far as hardware synths, I am not comfortable using a computer without a hardware synth. Even if for some reason I might prefer the software synth, we can only rely on a hardware synth if we are going to do any tweaking to our system which might effect the audio output.

I mean, what should Festival do better so that you could use it instead of Dectalk or Eloquence? Or the other hardware synthesizers. Of course, this is also a question for others.
