APPARATUS FOR RECORDING AND REPRODUCING HUMAN SPEECH

An analysis and synthesis device for analyzing human speech. Each phrase is memorized and analyzed, for later synthesis based on the analyzed data. The memory has a data area for analyzing each phrase and an index area for storing control information applicable to each phrase. A control means writes the analyzed data in the data area and writes control information in the index area. When speech synthesis is effected, the control means reads the analyzed data out of the data area on the basis of the control information stored in the index area. Thus, the speech analysis and synthesis device lessens the load on the control device.
