Subject: FW: Sound morphing? From: Richard Nance <rnance(at)DMU.AC.UK> Date: Thu, 19 May 2005 19:27:32 +0100Diphone and modalys from Ircam are pretty good at that. I haven't used it much myself, but there's a good tutorial with it. <www.ircam.fr> Also, there's a lot of control afforded in CSound, and I've heard some very nice transitions using it. <http://csound.sourceforge.net/> Andrew Lewis, a composer at Bangor, Wales, has some routines he made either with Max/MSP or CSound. SuperCollider is a very powerful sound programming language/software. It's free, and the sound quality is excellent. MAX/MSP and PD (Pure Data) are two programs developed by Miller Puckette. MAX is the commercial venture marketed by cycling74.com. PD is the open source cross platform versio. They aren't the same, but the approach is similar. AMX costs a few hundred USD. All of these Google pretty well, but if you're interested I'll get the links. I know some people DO use Matlab, and I believe there are some versions of LSU gravity wavelet routines for Matlab that have been subverted for sound use, but I don't have any details there.

For the special case of speech I recommend to look at (and listen to!) the work of Hartmut Pfitzinger (http://www.phonetik.uni-muenchen.de/~hpt/morphing/): Pfitzinger, H.R.
