Embodiment 1

[0023] figure 1 is a block diagram of the speech synthesis device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. Such as figure 1 As shown, the speech synthesis device 100 is implemented as a computer system as a signal processing device for generating a speech signal Z of a waveform representing a singing voice of a song, which includes: a computing device 10, a storage device 12, a display device 14, and an operating device 16 , and playback device 18. The computing device 10 is a control device for managing the components of the speech synthesis apparatus 100 .

[0024] Display device 14 (eg, a liquid crystal panel) displays images commanded by computing device 10 . The manipulation device 16 serves as an input device for receiving a user's instruction to the speech synthesis device 100 , and generates a manipulation signal M corresponding to the user's manipulation. The first embodiment employs a touch panel integrated with the display device 14 as th...

Embodiment 2

[0055] A second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below. In each of the embodiments described below, elements that operate or function the same (or are equivalent) to those in the first embodiment will be given the same reference symbols as the corresponding elements in the first embodiment, and detailed descriptions thereof will be appropriately omitted. describe.

[0056] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of a manipulation screen 50B used in the second embodiment. Such as Figure 8 As shown, in the manipulation screen 50B used in the second embodiment, different pitches S are arranged. A (C, D, E, ...) corresponding to multiple manipulation paths G. The user selects the desired pitch S from the plurality of manipulation paths G in the manipulation screen 50B. Acorresponding one manipulation path (hereinafter referred to as "target manipulation path") G, and voice command manipulation is performed in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The ma...

Embodiment 3

[0060] Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of a manipulation screen 50C used in the third embodiment. Such as Figure 9 As shown, in the manipulation screen 50C used in the third embodiment, different phonation codes S are arranged. B (syllable) corresponding to multiple manipulation paths G. The user selects the desired utterance code S from a plurality of manipulation paths G in the manipulation screen 50C. B The corresponding one manipulation path G is taken as the target manipulation path, and voice command manipulation is performed in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The manipulation determination unit 22 determines the manipulation position P on the target manipulation route G that has been selected from the plurality of manipulation routes G of the manipulation screen 50C, and the display control unit 24 places the manipulation mark 52 at the manipulation position P on the target manipulation route G place. Continuously repeat the selection of the target ma...

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a speech synthesis device and method. The speech synthesis device includes: a manipulation determiner configured to determine a manipulation position that moves according to the user's manipulation; and a speech synthesizer configured to respond to an operation for generating a speech in which the second phoneme follows the first phoneme. Instructing to generate a voice signal such that the utterance of the first phoneme starts before the manipulation position reaches the reference position, and the sounding of the first phoneme to the second phoneme is performed when the manipulation position reaches the reference position. voice.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to speech synthesis technology. Background technique [0002] Speech synthesis techniques for synthesizing speech to be made to correspond to desired character strings have been proposed. For example, JP-A-2002-202790 discloses a synthesis unit connection type speech synthesis technique for synthesizing the singing voice of a song by preparing song information in which vocalization time points are specified for each note of the song and uttered characters (for example, lyrics, phonetic codes, or phonetic characters); arranging synthesis units of uttered characters corresponding to respective notes at respective utterance time points on the time axis; and connecting the synthesis units to each other. [0003] However, in the technique of JP-A-2002-202790, a singing voice is generated having utterance time points and utterance characters which have been set in advance for each note. The utterance time point of each uttera...
