Romanian Speech Synthesis

Listed in Hugging Face Datasets

\ The Romanian speech synthesis (RSS) corpus was recorded in a hemianechoic chamber (anechoic walls and ceiling; floor partially anechoic) at the University of Edinburgh.

Description

We used three high quality studio microphones: a Neumann u89i (large diaphragm condenser), a Sennheiser MKH 800 (small diaphragm condenser with very wide bandwidth) and a DPA 4035 (headset-mounted condenser). Although the current release includes only speech data recorded via Sennheiser MKH 800, we may release speech data recorded via other microphones in the future.

All recordings were made at 96 kHz sampling frequency and 24 bits per sample, then downsampled to 48 kHz sampling frequency. For recording, downsampling and bit rate conversion, we used ProTools HD hardware and software. We conducted 8 sessions over the course of a month, recording about 500 sentences in each session.

At the start of each session, the speaker listened to a previously recorded sample, in order to attain a similar voice quality and intonation.
