- CHRISTMAS TEASER
-
- Trillium Sound Research Inc. is proud to present some preliminary
- results of our ongoing research in speech synthesis. In the spirit
- of Christmas, we have synthesized a chorus singing one verse of the
- Burgundian carol "Pat-a-pan". This sound file can be played on any
- NeXT computer, or on any computer running NEXTSTEP with an
- appropriate sound card and driver.
-
- The music was synthesized entirely from scratch using software
- tools; no recordings whatever were used. Although these tools were
- designed to create natural-sounding synthetic speech, they are
- flexible enough to create synthetic song.
