Voice morphing is the conversion of one voice signal into another voice signal i.e. source voice signal into target voice signal. Like image morphing, the aim of speech morphing is to preserve the pooled properties of the source signal and target signal during the generation of a smooth conversion between them. The major properties of speech signal are its pitch and envelope information. Pitch, duration and intensity of speech signal parameters are considered to get emotional voice from neutral or emotion. We are using TD-PSOLA technique to extract the prosodic parameters and during the training phase.
