[hts-users:03008] Re: Checking synthesized speech in demos

[dechen chhoeden <dnamgyelster@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Huda,

Ya the generated speech files should be in project folder/gen. Since you are trying to run just the original HTS demo (HTS-demo_CMU-ARCTIC-SLT), it has all the necessary training data. Hence you just have to run it. May be your "data" was not built properly. Why don't you check the "Makefile" of project folder/data and see if all the required folders and files were generated while training data (like lf0, cmp, scp, mcp, cmp, lists and scripts => these folders and their respective files will be generated while training 'data'). In the main Makefile in the project folder, uncomment voice and train just data first. Then only you can built voice. Just to make sure. Otherwise if these things where fine, then may be you are missing some installation files - make sure SPTK, ActiveTCL and other accompanying sws needed are installed properly. Hope this is of some help to you.

Regards,
Dechen

Hi,

I have run HTS-demo_CMU-ARCTIC-SLT and am trying to find the generated files to confirm that I have run it correctly. I found out that .lab files in data\gen are used for testing (http://hts.sp.nitech.ac.jp/hts-users/spool/2011/msg00220.html), but I cannot find the generated files in my project folder. I have looked in voices and gen, but there are no sound files.

Are the sound files placed somewhere else? Do I need to do something in addition to the install instructions to get synthesized speech from the .lab files in data\gen?

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
