Dear Anderson de Oliveira Monte,<br>
<br>
The default settings are for 16Kz,<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.fftLen 512<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.frameLen 400 (0.025 sec)<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.frameShift 80 (0.005 sec)<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.freqWarp 0.42<br>
<br>
so if you want to train with 22050, please take into account the
following settings:<br>
<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.fftLen 512<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.frameLen ~ 550 (0.025*22050)<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.frameShift ~ 110 (0.005*22050)<br>
HMMVoiceConfigure.freqWarp 0.45<br>
<br>
Frequency warping factor:<br>
8000 FREQWARP=0.31<br>
10000 FREQWARP=0.35<br>
12000 FREQWARP=0.37<br>
16000 FREQWARP=0.42<br>
22050 FREQWARP=0.45<br>
32000 FREQWARP=0.45<br>
44100 FREQWARP=0.53<br>
48000 FREQWARP=0.55<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Marcela.<br>

<div>Hello,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was able to build and install in MARY TTS a Brazilian
Portuguese HMM Voice using wav files that were downsampled to
16000Hz.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now I'm trying to build another voice with the same wav files
in their original sampling rate (22050Hz). I've made two
attempts, each one with the following sets of external programs:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b><u>RECOMMENDED SET (by MARY's HMM-based voice building
tutorial):</u></b></div>
<div><b>HTS-2.1</b></div>
<div><b>HTK-3.4</b></div>
<div><b>HDecode-3.4</b></div>
<div><b>SPTK-3.2 </b></div>
<div><b>hts_engine_API-1.01 </b></div>
<div><b>========================================================================</b></div>
<div><b><u>ALTERNATIVE SET:</u></b></div>
<div><b>HTS-2.1.1</b></div>
<div><b>HTK-3.4.1</b></div>
<div><b>HDecode-3.4.1</b></div>
<div>
<b>SPTK-3.3 </b></div>
<div><b>hts_engine_API-1.03</b></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>With the RECOMMENDED set, I was able to build and install the
voice in MARY without erros. However, it's impossible to
understand what it says (I believe it has something to do with
the alignment step, although no error was reported during the
whole voice building process). With the ALTERNATIVE set, I was
able to build a nice voice, better than the one in 16000Hz (I
checked it at the directories under
"hts/gen/qst001/ver1/1mix/"), but errors ocurred when the
training process tried to synthesize waveforms using the
hts-engine (not only in version 1.03, but also in versions 1.01
and 1.06). In addition to that, I tried to install and use this
voice in MARY TTS, but errors also occurred when the MARY SERVER
tried to load it.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would like to know if anybody has already built a HMM voice
in 22050Hz in MARY. If yes, how did you solve such issues and
what versions of the mentioned programs did you use? Is there
any version of MARY TTS with improvements or bugfixes to solve
these issues?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anderson</div>
