voder-excitation - VODER Excitation
Buzz/noise excitation source with MIDI CC1 crossfade for speech synthesis.
Overview
Section titled “Overview”The excitation stage of a VODER speech synthesizer. A glottal pulse oscillator (buzz, with -12 dB/oct harmonic rolloff) and a white noise generator (hiss, simulating breath) are crossfaded via MIDI CC1 (Mod Wheel). CC1=0 selects pure buzz for voiced sounds, CC1=127 selects pure hiss for unvoiced fricatives, and intermediate values blend both for voiced fricatives.
