* Apoptygma Berzerk's Kathy's Song has the chorus sung by the Mac text-to-speech Kathy voice. Of course, the song is essentially an [[Robosexual|exchange between the singer and his computer]]. It's awesome. |

* Camper Van Beethoven's version of "Sisters Of The Moon" by [[Fleetwood Mac]] has a text-to-speech program reciting the lyrics (and also throwing in seemingly arbitrary quotes from Pindar, [[William Shakespeare]], and [[This Is Spinal Tap]]). As with Erasure's "Video Killed The Radio Star" cover, this was done because no one in the band wanted to sing it. |

* Elise's singing voice in [[Sound Horizon]]'s ''Märchen'' was created using the Hatsune Miku [[Vocaloid]] software, with Revo's reasoning being that it made sense for a [[Creepy Doll]] to have an artificial voice. Her speaking voice, on the other hand, is provided by Fujita Saki (aka, the original source for Miku's voice). |

* AUTO from ''[[WALL-E]]''. As if there weren't enough Apple references in the movie already, the voice is [[Mac OS X]]'s own MacinTALK. Similarly, M-O's "Foreign Contaminant" is provided by PlainTalk. |

* The titular robot in ''[[Whatever Happened to Robot Jones]]'' originally used MacinTalk Junior, credited as "Himself", but later switched to a synthesized human voice, and they even redubbed the earlier episodes with the real actor. |
