Just a wild guess, but is it possible that it isn't only just quicker, but also higher? I mean, does it sound like it's being played back with double-speed? If so, your sound-card is most probably the problem: Some soundchips do not allow for intermediate sampling-rates except 11025, 22050 and 44100. Festival's voices are recorded at 8000 and 16000Hz. If you play such a sample on such a soundcard, it does sound as if it was played twice as fast. > Do you have got an idea why this is so and how I can set it to a normal > speed? If my above assumption is correct, I'm afraid the only soltuion you have is to get a decent soundchip. -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> | Get my public key via finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44
