       This manual page documents briefly the hts_engine command.

       This  manual  page  was  written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a
       manual page.  Instead, it has documentation in the GNU       Info format; see below.

       hts_engine is a program that synthesize speech  waveform  from  HMMs  trained  by  the  HMM-based  speech
       synthesis system (HTS).

       If  you installed hts-voice-nitech-jp-atr503-m001 in the current directory, the following command let you
       make a voice file from input.lab:

              % hts_engine -s 48000 -p 240 -a 0.55 \
              -m nitech_jp_atr503_m001.htsvoice \
              -ow output.wav \
              input.lab
