Abstract

The audio stream of a participant to a conference is modified within the conference to change a perceptible output of a characteristic of speech represented by the audio stream. An audio stream is obtained from a participant device connected to a conference. The audio stream represents speech of a user of the participant device. A user request to modify a first characteristic of the speech is initiated within the conference. The first characteristic is modified without modifying other characteristics of the speech to produce a modified audio stream, such that a second characteristic of the speech remains unmodified within the modified audio stream. An output of the modified audio stream within the conference is then caused in place of the audio stream. The audio stream modification as disclosed herein may be performed while the conference remains ongoing or during playback of a recording of the conference.
