Abstract
A speech to text system includes a text and labels module receiving a text input and providing a text analysis and a label with a phonetic description of the text. A label buffer receives the label from the text and labels module. A parameter generation module accesses the label from the label buffer and generates a speech generation parameter. A parameter buffer receives the parameter from the parameter generation module. An audio generation module receives the text input, the label, and/or the parameter and generates a plurality of audio samples, A scheduler monitors and schedules the text and label module, the parameter generation module, and/or the audio generation module. The parameter generation module is further configured to initialize a voice identifier with a Voice Style Sheet (VSS) parameter, receive an input indicating a modification to the VSS parameter, and modify the VSS parameter according to the modification.
