This software contains an integration of the WORLD vocoder (https://github.com/mmorise/World) and hts_engine API-1.10 (http://hts-engine.sourceforge.net). It also uses functions from the Speech Signal Processing Toolkit (SPTK) (http://sp-tk.sourceforge.net/).

The main modification can be found in lib/synthworld.cpp.

Follow the classic sequence:

autoreconf --install
./configure
make

at the end, the executable bin/hts_engine will be created

You have to call hts_engine with the option -w to use the WORLD vocoder, otherwise the default MLSA vocoder will be used.
