It is not our intention that this treatise on the general problem thesis be either a of speech synthesis, nor a detailed description of the many operational features of the synthesizer. Rather, we hope to present the capability of the general detailed look at Separate a description synthesizer, certain important aspects plus of the of a more design. documents are being prepared to serve as operation manuals for those who wish to use the synthesizer. -2- 1.2 What Makes a Speech Synthesizer The basis of all terminal analog speech synthesizers is that the spectrum of the signal can be separated into a source function and the transfer function of the vocal tract (10,±1). Furthermore, Fant (11) has acoustic tube driven at one end transfer for an and open at the other, the function can be approximated as closely as desired by a cascade of pole shown that pairs. circuits containing only complex That such a model conjugate works is proven by the existence of many working speech synthesizers which use this principle. A model consisting solely of cascaded complex conjugate pole pairs is only adequate The two notable examples for certain classes of where this model sounds. breaks down are sounds in which the tube is excited other than at the and when more than one acoustic tube end, is involved. An analysis of such acoustic configurations (16,23,24) produces a transfer function which contains pairs as well as pole pairs. sounds complex conjugate zero If a synthesizer is to produce with spectra containing zeroes, a transfer function containing zeroes must be included. There are speecht two principal excitation a quasi-periodic pulse -3- sources in most source caused by vibration of the vocal cords (glottal source), and random noise caused by turbulence as the airstream passes through a constriction in the vocal tract (noise source). synthesizer contain should of kinds both should source noise addition, the A general purpose speech be sources.

Other sources is varied by of the vocal the vibrations to produce pops airstream the velocity of the and clicks could be included, but this has not been done in this synthesizer. In addition the above, to there several other are auxiliary features which might be included. These features are not essential to the synthesis of speech, but contribute to adjustment, testing, Several such features or monitoring are included in of the synthesizer° the present synthe- sizer, and will be discussed later. 1.3 Hybrid Computation The motivation (5,6,22) behind the that analog is use of computation hybrid computation is superior (at the present time) to digital computation for certain tasks, vice-versa. and In particular, analog computation is especially suited to high speed linear processing -4- of time functions.

The problem is not completely solved though, since there is still parasitic phase shift to be compensated. The general problem of phase shift is discussed in the next section. The final transfer circuit, shown in figure 2.7, provides a function consisting of a conjugate pair of poles, and a conjugate pair of zeroes. The center frequencies of the pole and the zero are individually variable from 255 cps to 10000 cps. The bandwidths are from 10 cps to 200Q cps. independently variable The bandwidth is constant + 20 cps over the entire frequency with the range greatest error occurring above 3000 cps. 2.4 Perturbations Due to Parasitic Phase Shift Since the operating frequencies of the circuits used in the synthesizer conventional introduced by purposes of are considerably operational amplifier parasitic phase discussion, we resonator section in figure tion of the poles by the For the circuit the poles move along than those more acute. refer to the 2.8 and consider the simple presence of unwanted phase shift. 2.8, the root locus is parallel to a line the j-axis. axis.

Thus, when it is finished there is no necessity to save it. be these The next time this part is to used, a fresh copy is read from the drum. This saves a drum swap every time another part is brought in. The terms input data and output data as used here refer to lists of numbers each element of which is a sample from a time function. The entire list specifies the time for the duration of an utterance. function The distinction between input data and output data is that output data lists contain numbers which are directly transferred to the synthesizer, -28- whereas input data is entered by the experimenter, and is never directly used to control the synthesizer. The five parts are three, buffer display, named and editor. between them is such that no occurs.
