We call your Franks or Frankfurters "Winerli", i.e. little ones from Vienna. Our equivalent to cents is even more queer, it is called "Rappen", i.e. black horses. Here are the sample Narrators, in case you want to give them a listen to. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/b4avsqc8oyd5c58/...

Yeah, Swiss Francs, but you won't get more than a croissant for one Franken (slightly more than a Dollar) nowadays. The Big Mac index is around 8.- sFr or so. There are some sample narration files on the ACX server. They do not meet their own requirements though. Even worse, they are badly distorted...

Well, my sound system is cheap in comparison to my old band equipment with 48 Channel mixer, A-Dat and all the funny things adding up to at least 20000.-- sFr. I am curious what the ACX people reply and how much is measurement and how much listening. I only want to prevent that the sample is rejecte...

Here is a sample-extract that should illustrate one of the mentioned points above. It is the word "Pose" I''ve treated it with the equalization effect. - Cut at 200,400 and 1300 Hz (that's the boominess or resonance of the environment) - cut at 6.3 kHz, the "Szzzz" part Cut means...

That's a very fine production. A nice voice combined with comprehensive and clear reading. Moreover, it is entertaining even for an alien such as me. Reminds me somewhat of Akif Prinçci's "Felidae" series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felidae_(novel) However, I don't think that we are done...

Your application will obviously be working with a database, rather than a own deviced feature-extraction, won't it?
I would have been very surprised if you had implemented all the algorithms that your features suggest.
It is of course perfectly legitimate to go this way.

I think the version is too old for that.
I don't know if per chance an alpha version between 2.0.0 and 2.01 with this feature is available and compatible with your OS.

Have you entered any character in the filter field? Just choose "All Commands", change to the list and press "N" until Nyquist Prompt gets focus. I wouldn't program at all without a shortcut to the Nyquist prompt. Another Tip: Use Control-Enter in the NP if you don't want to alwa...

Yeah, just like my women folks, they prefer to shout and cry it going

Thank you Steve, It is after all only an example under "clinical" conditions. I've just tried the snippet with the audio book extract from "Manipulating Decibels" at 16 kHz. It is interesting that the code marks all places with the same intonation--which is actually more difficul...
