Hi All,

I am using cmu_us_bdl_artic_hts voice along with festival. I tried to
use different intonation methods by making changes to
cmu_us_bdl_arctic_intonation.scm. Specifically, I tried Simple
intonation and tree intonation by making the following changes:

.......
(define (cmu_us_bdl_arctic::select_intonation)
  "(cmu_us_bdl_arctic::select_intonation)
Set up intonation for English."
   (set! int_tone_cart_tree f2b_int_tone_cart_tree)
   (set! int_accent_cart_tree f2b_int_accent_cart_tree)
   (Parameter.set 'Int_Method Intonation_Tree)
)
......

and

.....
(define (cmu_us_bdl_arctic::select_intonation)
  "(cmu_us_bdl_arctic::select_intonation)
Set up intonation for English."
  (set! int_accent_cart_tree simple_accent_cart_tree)
  (Parameter.set 'Int_Method Intonation_Simple)
)
.......

But, I am not able to make out any perceptible change in the
synthesized speech using the two intonation methods. Do I need to make
any more changes to change the intonation method? I want to find how
different intonation models effect the synthesized speech.

Thanks,
Harendra.
