1 Interspeech Synthesis of Singing Challenge, Aug 28, 2007 Formant-based Synthesis of Singing Sten Ternström and Johan Sundberg KTH Music Acoustics, Speech Music and Hearing, Stockholm This is the legacy source-filter technique, with some minor updates The sound is generated from scratch - no prior recordings of voices The synthesizer is driven by the same rule system platform as the text-to-speech systems pioneered by Carlson & Granström Rules for music performance and singing have been added gradually over decades
