[CQ-Contest] SSB Voice Keying

Hi,

I have for a few years used the voice keying features of N1MM, mainly when operating my station via remote from our city apartment. This has worked out fairly well and has been keeping my family asleep during the most intense moments of the night. But with the upgrade of N1MM to N1MM+ voice keying is not as smooth anymore. The biggest difference is that a slight delay is being introduced between letter and number files making the exchange sounding very robotic.

I’d like to hear what other solutions are out there. I am looking for something that lets me run a complete SSB contest without saying a word into the microphone. I want it to sound as natural as possible and it should handle sequential number exchanges or anything else contest promotors can throw at us as an exchange. It should be possible to use it with N1MM and/or Wintest. Software solution is preferred but I won’t rule out hardware if not software can provide this. 

Is there anything like this out there?
