I am using phonemes for some speaks, to make them sound more natural, but some phonemes change the rest of the sentence feel. I have made a demo here.
Using these settings:
- English
- EN-GB-Wavenet-F
- speed 0.95
- pitch 0
In the speak below I have two identical speaks, where one word is replaced with a phoneme. Notice how the end of the sentence changes to a more robotic feel in the first.
How do I avoid this?
