PADE Fine details voice quality

This corpus gathers sentences uttered by two female speakers (S3 and S6) performing six speech acts in USA English using the sentence “Mary was dancing”. The wav files are provided with their syllabic and phonemic alignment (in TextGrids). The dataset was developed as part of the French ANR project PADE.
The recording protocol was described in Rilliard et al. (2013); analysis can be found in Rilliard et al.  2017; this subset was used for the publication Erickson et al. (submitted). The recordings of six pairs of opposed voice qualities, on the word “dancing”, by a female USA English speaker are also included, and were used for the perceptual evaluation presented in Erickson et al. (submitted).
