Talking Teacher

The Coleco Talking Teacher was made in 1985. It is similar to the Speak & Spell.

When a key is held down it will continuously replay the sound. I wired two rotary switches to the keyboard matrix to select and activate each key function in order to create looping sounds. Most bends work when a key is pressed so this creates nice glitchy loops.
