One way of expressing an environmental sound is using vocal imitations, whichinvolve the process of replicating or mimicking the rhythm and pitch of soundsby voice. We can effectively express the features of environmental sounds, suchas rhythm and pitch, using vocal imitations, which cannot be expressed byconventional input information, such as sound event labels, images, or texts,in an environmental sound synthesis model. In this paper, we propose aframework for environmental sound synthesis from vocal imitations and soundevent labels based on a framework of a vector quantized encoder and theTacotron2 decoder. Using vocal imitations is expected to control the pitch andrhythm of the synthesized sound, which only sound event labels cannot control.Our objective and subjective experimental results show that vocal imitationseffectively control the pitch and rhythm of synthesized sounds.
