Re: [gnuspeech-contact] Sampe input for SoftwareTRM

[Steve Nygard]

The first set of lines represent fixed values, and are commented in  
the sample file.  After that each line has a bunch of values.  These  
are parameters to the tube model, including the radii of eight  
sections of the tube, some values controlling frication, and a few  
other parameters.

If I recall correctly, the input control rate controls the time  
represented by each line.  The sample file is 4 Hz, so each line  
should represent 0.25 seconds of sound.  For generating speech the  
input control rate is higher, something like 250 Hz.

If you look in the diphones.mxml file in the source for the Monet  
application, you'll find the parameters that the tube uses listed in  
the <parameters> section -- the values in the tube model input file  
occur in the same order they are listed in dihpones.mxml.

The Monet application is used to create and edit the diphones.mxml,  
which is a set of rules for creating "key frames" between sets of  
tube model parameters and interpolating between these key frames to  
generate the input to the tube model.

I'll send you a bigger sample file generated from Monet.
