Frequency scaling factors: [0,2.7,1.9,2.7,1.91,3.1,3.28,3.1] I tried to get a female child voice. Then I scaled the frequencies by high factors, and even higher the ones of the last part in order to get a small expression of shyness or embarrassment. Frequency stretching factors: [0,1,1,1] (no change) Timbre preservation: 1 (no change) Timbre scaling factors: [0,0, 0.7,0.5, 0.75,0.51, 1.37,1.07, 1.9,1.4, 2.28,1.58, 2.6,1.8, 2.67,1.81, 3.28, 2.38] I change this in order to get a more natural higher speed, mainly in the last part of the speech, in particular compressing the "silent" spaces.
