METHOD OF RE-SOUNDING AUDIO MATERIALS AND APPARATUS FOR REALISING SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G10L13/00 

FIELD: physics, acoustics.

SUBSTANCE: method and apparatus improve the quality of the teaching phase, improves match of the voice of a user (target speaker) in a converted speech signal and facilitates a one-time teaching phase for different audio materials. Said technical result is achieved due to that a program-controlled electronic information processing device (PCEIPD) generates an acoustic base of initial audio materials (ABIA) and acoustic teaching base (ATB). Data are transmitted from the ABIA to display a list of initial audio materials on a monitor screen. Upon selecting at least one audio material from the list of ABIA, data on said material are transmitted to PCEIPD random-access memory for storage. Files are selected from the ATB of teaching phrases of the speaker, said files being converted to audio phrases and transmitted to the user at an audio playback device. Through a microphone, the user repeats audio phrases, during playback of which the monitor screen displays text of the played back phrase and a cursor which moves along the text of the phrase in accordance with how the user should repeats it. Files are created in accordance with the played back phrases, which are stored according to the order of playing back phrases in the target speaker acoustic base (TSAB) formed. The PCEIPD monitors the rate of the played back phrase and its volume. A conversion function is created. Using the conversion function, ABIA files are converted for storage in the acoustic base of converted audio materials (ABCA) and providing the user with data on the converted audio materials on the monitor screen.

EFFECT: apparatus comprises corresponding functional units which realise the method.
