Wrong question IMHO. correct question: Do Don, Judy, and other characters have the right morphs to be compatible with MIMIC? Answer: Yes, basically, although due to variation sin the morphs the quality of the results varies. Indeed any character given teh appropriate morphs can become MIMIC-compatible - hence the proliferation of MIMIC morph add-ons for characters like the Hatchling Phoenix, the Poser 3/4/5/ dog, and so on and so forth. Probably the characters which work best with MIMIC1 are "Dork" and "Posette", since the program was written specifically for them. However, with MIMIC2 (especially the Pro version) you can tweak a great deal [like which lipsynch morphs to use for which phonemes] and so improve/alter the effect with any character which you feel could be improved upon. In MIMIC2 you can do this per animation but with MIMIC2 pro you can define "configurations" which improve on how MIMIC2 uses a specific model (Michael, Don, the DAZ3D turtle - whatever) to acheive apparent speech.
