Subject: Effects of masking on speech production From: Nachum Ulanovsky <nachumu(at)MD.HUJI.AC.IL> Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2003 22:03:26 +0200Dear list, I am intersted in the following question: Is speech production in normal speakers affected by maskers consisting of human speech? In particular, does such masking cause speakers to change pitch? I have found some literature on the effects of noise maskers on normal speakers, and on the effects of speech maskers on stutterers -- but could not find anything on the question above. Any comments/references on the subject will be greatly appreciated.
