This project uses a chip that was common in video games of the 1980’s. I really like the sounds it produces. Unfortunately there isn’t any how-to, or schematics, for this project.
This video shows a hardware (“real”) SP0256 IC sequencer from Ableton Live via internal MIDI routing and a serial connection over USB.

The SP0256-AL2 is a phoneme-based speech synthesiser chip. I connected one to my Compukit UK101 in about 1985. They seem to be still available:
