Hi,

so plz let me know if i will use the HMM trained with dynamic features to synthesis speech without the dynamic features

i mean how to synthesis voice without the usage od dynamic features

what steps to follow to make this ?

Modify configs/syn.cnf from

NATURALREADORDER = T
NATURALWRITEORDER = T
USEALIGN = T
PDFSTRSIZE = "IntVec 2 1 3"
PDFSTRORDER = "IntVec 2 25 1"
PDFSTREXT = "StrVec 2 mcp lf0"
WINFN = "StrVec 3 mcp.win1 mcp.win2 mcp.win3 StrVec 3 lf0.win1 lf0.win2 lf0.win3 "
WINDIR = /common_work/zen/HTS-2.0-release/HTS-demo_Nitech-ATR503-M001/data/win

to

NATURALREADORDER = T
NATURALWRITEORDER = T
USEALIGN = T
PDFSTRSIZE = "IntVec 2 1 3"
PDFSTRORDER = "IntVec 2 75 1"
PDFSTREXT = "StrVec 2 mgc lf0"
WINFN = "StrVec 1 mgc.win1 StrVec 3 lf0.win1 lf0.win2 lf0.win3 "
WINDIR = /common_work/zen/HTS-2.0-release/HTS-demo_Nitech-ATR503-M001/data/win

The above modification means that constraints between static and dynamic features are not used in the speech parameter generation algorithm.
After running HMGenS, you obtain 75-dimensional mcp sequences.
First 25 dimensions of this 75-dimensional mcp sequences are static features, so pick up them using bcp of SPTK as follows:

bcp +f -l 75 -L 25 -s 0 -e 24 -S 0 alice01.mcp > alice01_wo_dynamic.mcp

Please refer to the SPTK's reference manual for details.
Use alice01_wo_dynamic.mcp instead of alice01.mcp in the waveform synthesis stage.
