Phrase Recorder
Phrase Recorder is used to
record, play, and re-record phrases. These phrases can be used as voice prompts
or for testing speech applications.
Phrase Recorder organizes
phrases into phrase libraries. A phrase library is a collection of
phrases, like dog or I want to go to the store. Each phrase in a
phrase library is treated as a single element; each phrase is recorded, played,
and used as a unit.
Because long phrases can be
created from shorter phrases, phrases are often organized in smaller units, such
I want, to go, and to the store. Phrases can later be
played in sequence to form longer sound sequences.
Phrase libraries are also
organized by speaker. Each phrase in a phrase library can be spoken by
one or more speaker. Phrase Recorder keeps track of who has said what, and has
options to prompt individual speakers in a recording session.
Phrase Recorder is part of
SpeechStudio Suite. When Phrase Recorder is used with SpeechStudio Suite, many
of the options and features of Phrase Recorder are handled automatically by
SpeechRunner and PhraseExplorer. When used with SpeechStudio Suite,
Phrase Recorder is still used to guide speakers through recording sessions.
Phrase Recorder is also part
of Lexicon Developer. When Phrase Recorder is used with Lexicon
Developer, Phrase Recorder is used to collect pronunciations from the speaker.
Because it runs in a single recording session, the speaker can quickly add
pronunciations for 100s of words, a task that can take hours when it interrupts
dictation.
