Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3022270
Kind Code:

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To synthesize a voice in a low cost, with a simple device without requiring high computing ability, make tone color editing such as the conversion of a tone color from a voice into a musical sound possible, and solve such a problem that when morphing is performed in a speech synthesizing device of formant synthesis form, a sound is not heard as a voice in hearing feeling.
SOLUTION: In a parameter producing device which inputs a formant parameter for prescribing a formant and produces the formant parameter to be given to a formant sound source for synthesizing a voice having the formant corresponding to the formant parameter, when the pronounceation of a first phoneme is moved to the pronouncation of a second phoneme, the formant parameter on the first phoneme is outputted for the specified time to the formant sound source, then the interpolation of the formant parameter is started from the first phoneme to the second phoneme, and the result of interpolation is outputted to the formant sound source.
