SPEECH SYNTHESIZER

摘要

PURPOSE:To synthesize voice as a user intends by controlling the acoustic effect of the synthesized voice at an optional position of an input sentence. CONSTITUTION:A source sentence input means 21 inputs a source sentence given a synthesized sound control parameter and a decomposing means 22 decomposes the source sentence into the control parameter and a sentence which does not contain the control parameter. A voicing symbol generating means 23 processes the sentence containing no control parameters linguistically to generate a corresponding voice and a parameter adding means 24 adds an acoustic effect parameter and the control parameter to a voicing symbol corresponding to a synchronous point. Then a voice synthesizing parameter generating means is constituted. An acoustic effect parameter control member 26 controls the acoustic effect parameter with the key signal from an external input means 25 and the control parameter to generate the voice synthesis parameter. Consequently, the acoustic effect of the synthesized voice can be controlled at the optional position of the sentence.
