Who knows if anyone is using this instrument, but I just wanted to
point out what I think is an error in the formant data table in CLMs
jcvoi.ins
The line:
(setf (aref fnc 2 5 1 1) (flipxy '(175 16.5 262 24.5 392 32.7
523 49.0 784 65.41 1046 98 1568 130.8)))
should probably read:
(setf (aref fnc 2 5 1 1) (flipxy '( 33 16.5 33 24.5 33 32.7 49
49.0 65 65.41 98 98 131 130.8)))
This specifies a breakpoint function for the center of the first
formant for a male voice. On the 5th vowel the x values (fundamental
frequency) appear to be for the male voice, but the y values (formant
position) appear to be for the female voice.
I'm not exactly sure what vowel table index 5 refers to and I haven't
checked the data. It still sounds a bit strange for the male voice.
Perhaps someone who knows the history of this instrument can comment.
Regards,
Michael
