چکیده

In this paper, we propose a system for synthesizing the human singing voice and the musical subtleties that accompany it. The system, Lyricos, employs a concatenation-based text-to-speech method to synthesize arbitrary lyrics in a given language. Using information contained in a regular MIDI le, the system chooses units, represented as sinusoidal waveform model parameters, from an inventory of data collected from a professional singer, and concatenates these to form arbitrary lyrical phrases. Standard MIDI messages control parameters for the addition of vibrato, spectral tilt, and dynamic musical expression, resulting in a very natural-sounding singing voice. Presented at 103rd Meeting of the AES, Sept. 1997 { AES Preprint 4591 2

Outlines of Burcas - A simple concatenation-based MIDI-to-singing voice synthesis system

The present paper outlines a simple system (yet to be completed) for concatenation-based singing synthesis in Swedish. The system, called Burcas, takes as input a MIDI file (possibly holding multiple parts) for melody and a text file for lyrics, and it produces standard audio files as output. For the digital signal processing, the MBROLA speech generator is employed. Burcas consists of an input...

基於時域上基週同步疊加法之歌聲合成系統 (Singing Voice Synthesis System Based on Time Domain-Pitch Synchronized Overlap and Add) [In Chinese]

In this study, we propose and implement a concatenation-based singing synthesis system to synthesize the singing voice with background music. We record three different pitches to build our corpus for all syllables. The synthesis informations, including velocity, note number, start time and end time are extracted from the main melody. Runs and riffs information was added into consideration after...

An On-the-Fly Mandarin Singing Voice Synthesis System

An on-the-fly Mandarin singing voice synthesis system, called SINVOIS (singing voice synthesis), is proposed in this paper. The SINVOIS system can receive the continuous speech of the lyrics of a song, and generate the singing voice immediately based on the music score information (embedded in a MIDI file) of the song. Two sub-systems are designed and embedded into the system. One is the synthe...

A Score-to-singing voice synthesis System for the Greek Language

In this paper, we examine the possibility of generating Greek singing voice with the MBROLA synthesizer, by making use of an already existing diphone database. Our goal is to implement a score-to-singing synthesis system, where the score is written in a score editor and saved in the midi format. However, MBROLA accepts phonetic files as input rather than midi ones and because of this, we constr...
