hey I am trying to mod espeak to make it sound more like eloquence. so far I have this variant. well I am getting errors so I'll paste the text of the files. the variant works fine. and it is:
oh and the variant is called Read.

language variant
name Read
klatt 4

formant 0 95 100 100
formant 1 95 100 100
formant 2 95 100 100
formant 3 95 100 100
formant 4 95 100 100
formant 5 95 100 100
formant 6 95 100 100
formant 7 95 100 100
formant 8 95 100 100
intonation 2

pitch 45 132

tone 600 255  1200 255 500 255

tunes s5 c5 e5 q5

that's fine. but intonation gives me errors and here is its file. also loading it with that tunes statement espeak is still speaking the same. so here is the text of the intonation file.
my new tunes are at the bottom. when I compile with espeakedit I get one errors with no indication as to where the error is located at. Maybe I am just bad at developing and should quit while I'm ahead? or should I keep trying? anyone have any ideas? also where do I go to modify how klatt itself sounds?  hey people at Nuance who own the eloquence license. any help here would be appreciated.
