Abstract
SRS (Speech Research System) is a highly flexible computer system for the development of text-to-speech rules for any language. Its powerful interactive facilities and special rule language have been designed to facilitate rule development by programmers and nonprogrammers alike. The system has been used for instruction in acoustic phonetics, for the generation of stimuli for perceptual experiments, and for the development of synthesis rules for a variety of languages. This paper focuses on the SRS rule framework, which allows users to express four kinds of rules that apply in succession to convert text to sound. The paper also illustrates the user-oriented nature of the SRS interactive facilities, and describes the system’s implementation and use.
