[gnuspeech-contact] intonation control

[Frederic Voisin]

Hello,

I'm starting with GnuSpeech/Monet to generate some sound materials for an 
artistic project. I greatly appreciate the control of the synthesis, and I have 
the three following questions. I use the GnuSpeech-0.7.1.dmg version on OSX 
10.6.

- About intonation contour :
is there a way to save the synthesis with some ad-hoc intonation drawn by 
myself into the Intonation window ? I succeed in listenning it with the 
"Synthesize" button in the Intonation window, but when I do "Synthesize" or 
"Synthesize to Sound file" in the Synthesis window, the resulting sound is just 
using the default Intonation contour which it re-generate. So, I don't find the 
way to save to a sound file using my own intonation contour (I've read previous 
mails on this list which just say how to listen - synthesize, but not how to 
save)

- What parameters represent the 16 columns into the file /tmp//Monet.parameters 
- I see no doc about this file ?
Is this file directly read by the synthesizer or by the Monet's Synthsis window 
- so that it may be edited to generate and save some ad-hoc intonation contour 
or so ?

- Do GnuTTSClient and Synthesizer kernels exist to be called from a terminal or 
a shell ?

Bests,
Fred
