Abstract:In this paper, our algorithm for speech speed control system and its DSP implementation are described. The system slows or speeds up speech without changing its pitch, which aids learning a foreign language, listening for older people, and so on. The proposed algorithm is based on the phase vocoder, which doesn’t need extraction of voiced fragments from a speech signal. And the reconstruction of time-scaled signal involves no smoothing operation between voiced and unvoiced sections. The speech signal is decomp… Show more
