Description : British English male voice for Mbrola This package contains an English diphone database provided in the context of the MBROLA project see: http://tcts.fpms.ac.be/synthesis/ . It provides a British English male voice (known as "Roger's voice") to be used with the Mbrola program. It has been built from the original Roger diphones made available by CSTR, University of Edinburgh, as part of their generic text-to-speech system Festival. . http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival.html . Input files use the SAMPA phonetic notation, as adopted in other Mbrola databases. This package also provides the correspondence with the MRPA phonetic notation used in the original distribution of Roger's voice in the Festival TTS system.
This is the first of a series of voices for the non-free mbrola speech synthesis and serves as a first example for discussion. It would provide the following virtual packages: mbrola-voice-en-uk, mbrola-voice-en, mbrola-voice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
